Image : Taiwan infectious disease expert Zhuang Yinqing (left) said the Taiwan team asked the health commission officials from Hubei and Beijing if they were aware of "human-to-human" SARS-CoV-2 transmission on 13 January 2020. The answer is positive but the PRC officials did not want to declare it public until 20 January 2020.
Infectious disease expert Zhuang Yinqing, who visited Wuhan in early January to inspect the epidemic, told the media on 6 May 2020 that the National Health Commission of the People's Republic of China had disclosed on 13 January 2020 that "human-to-human" virus transmission was not ruled out, and the hospital had set up an "infectious disease department" at that time, but the CCP authorities did not issue a warning to the public and the world in time. It was not until 20 January 2020 that "human-to-human" virus transmission was first acknowledged in public.
According to a report by the British media "Daily Telegraph" on 6 May 2020, Zhuang Yinqing, the commander of the command center of the Southern District Infectious Disease Prevention and Treatment Medical Network in Taiwan, said in an interview that Taiwan was informed of the outbreak of atypical pneumonia in China by social media at the end of last year. The Taiwan CDC believes that it is necessary to find out about the virus transmission mode of the outbreak. Therefore, he sent a letter to the PRC health authority on 6 January 2020 to request inspection. On 11 January 2020, he received a positive reply and the visit was approved. The next day, he and Hong Minnan, an anti-epidemic physician of the Disease Control Department of the Ministry of Health and Welfare, departed for Wuhan, and conducted inspection for three days from 13 to 15 January 2020.
He said that at the time there were also experts from Hong Kong and Macau, a total of 10 people, but did not see the relevant personnel of the United States or WHO, and it is reported that they were the first "foreign officials" to visit Wuhan after the outbreak.
During the meeting, they met the health authorities in Wuhan and Hubei Province, and a health official sent by the Beijing central government. During the first day of the visit, the other party only informed orally that there were 41 cases, 28 of which are in connection with the Wuhan Huanan Seafood Market, there are two cases of family infections, but for the remaining one-third of the cases, the official failed to give a clear answer.
Zhuang Yinqing and other experts believe that there is a high probability of "human-to-human" virus transmission. However, the officials in the report tried to deny. The central health officials said, "Why should we give the old conclusion? The current conclusion is that we cannot rule out limited human-to-human transmission."
When they inspected Jinyintan Hospital the designated atypical pneumonia hospital, officials mentioned the need to quarantine Wuhan to prevent the spread of the virus, and said that the hospital has so-called 'dirty areas'. Except for medical staff, the general public is not allowed to enter, indicating that the China Communist Party (CCP) authorities are aware of the fact that the virus can transmit from person to person The CCP authorities did not admit that the virus can transmit from person to person for the first time until 20 January 2020.
