Chinese authorities warned doctors, who responded to the novel coronavirus in the early stage of the outbreak in Wuhan, that they could be punished for espionage if they revealed what went on during the period, local sources said Wednesday.

 

Medical workers in the central Chinese city, where the virus was first detected late last year, were also urged not to speak at all about the situation then, the sources said on condition of anonymity.

 

Such moves underscore how the leadership of Chinese President Xi Jinping, which has been come under international criticism for allowing the virus to spread to the world due to the delay in its initial response, tried to cover up the outbreak in Wuhan.

If it doesn't bode well it sounds like we won't hear about it as it will be gagged.

It's almost like they've got something to hide

 

I read somewhere that the Chinese have started refusing entry to British MPs in government for some reason unknown.

When the Australians took initiative to investigate the origin of the Wu-flu, they were firmly put on the bad boys list and punished. 

Maybe the bio lab had a leak after all.

It's the ongoing loss of face that they just cant come to terms with! They will never admit their many faults!

[Lacessit 22,928]

The CCP wants to keep its credentials as a regime that brought the virus under control burnished, so it can say its method of government is superior to those decadent Westerners. Hence the gag order on what really happened.

Not the first time politicians have sidelined, ignored or suppressed scientists, is it?

it's possible, but seems to be more in line with the "sources say" disinformation you find in the epock times.  a quick bing search didn't find anything else on the topic during the past week.  no other news organizations have picked up on it yet.  surprising given the speed of spread on the intertubes.

 

until we see some real details, i'll put it in the same category as articles by sidney powell, written for the true believers to have something to link to.
