The family were finally discharged and flew back to their home country on the next day as of the 80 Chinese nationals who arrived in Sihanoukville on the same flight as Jia, most have since returned to China, although the city of Wuhan remains under quarantine.[16][17]
China[edit]
The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic was first manifested by a cluster of mysterious, suspected pneumonia cases in Wuhan, the capital of Hubei Province, China. A Wuhan hospital notified the local center for disease control and prevention (CDC) and health commissions on 27 December 2019. On 31 December Wuhan CDC admitted that there was a cluster of unknown pneumonia cases related to Huanan Seafood Market after the unverified documents appeared on the Internet. The potential disease outbreak soon drew nationwide attention including that of the National Health Commission (NHC) in Beijing who sent experts to Wuhan on the following day. On 8 January, a new coronavirus was identified as the cause of the pneumonia.[19] The sequence of the virus was soon published on an open-access database.[20] Measures taken by China were praised by the World Health Organization (WHO) and some foreign governments.[21][22][23] China's response appeared to be more transparent than how the country responded to SARS in 2003.[22][24] However, delayed and controversial responses by the Wuhan and Hubei authorities failed to contain the outbreak in the early stage which led to criticism from the public and the media.[25] By 29 January, the virus spread to all provinces of mainland China.[26][27][28] By 8 February, over 724 died from the coronavirus infection-associated pneumonia and 34,878 were confirmed to be infected. In Hubei alone, there were 24,953 cases of infections and 699 related deaths.[29] All provinces of mainland China initiated the highest response level to public health emergency.[30] WHO declared the outbreak a "public health emergency of international concern" on 31 January[28] for fear that the virus spread beyond China to where there is no robust healthcare system despite its confidence that China was "doing all that it can".[31]
Chinese Communist Party General Secretary Xi Jinping warned about a "grave situation" facing China.[32][33] The Party Politburo formed a special leading group for epidemic control, led by Premier Li Keqiang. The Chinese New Year celebrations were cancelled. The passengers were checked for their temperatures.[34][clarification needed] Commands for epidemic control (CEC) have been formed in different regions including Wuhan and Hubei. Many inter-province bus services[35] and railway services have been suspended.[36] By January 29, all Hubei cities were quarantined.[37] Curfew laws were implemented in Huanggang, Wenzhou[38] and other mainland cities.[39] The region also sees a huge shortage of face masks and other protective gear despite itself being the world's manufacturing hub for these products.[40]
On 26 February, the WHO remarked that the total number of newly confirmed cases outside mainland China exceeded those from within for the first time,[41] and by 6 March the reported number of new cases had dropped to well fewer than 100 nationally per day, down from thousands per day at the height of the crisis. On 13 March, the number of newly imported cases passed the number of domestically transmitted new cases for the first time.[42]
With the increasing reported cases of infections, fear upgraded along with regional discrimination in China and racial discrimination beyond China despite calls for stopping the discrimination by many governments.[43][44] Some rumors circulated across Chinese social media, along with endorsements and counter-rumor efforts by media and governments.[45][46] Sophisticated modelling of the outbreak suggests that the number of cases in China would have been many times higher without interventions such as early detection, and isolation of the infected.[47]
