The Chinese Communist Party’s “Two Sessions” ended on 11 March 2025. At the closing ceremony of the National People’s Congress that day, in addition to the absence of NPC Chairman Zhao Leji due to illness, Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping was also photographed by foreign media with abnormal behavior, and his hands seemed to be constantly rubbing his legs. In recent years, there have been reports that Xi suffers from multiple diseases, and his painful expression at the closing meeting of the National People's Congress last year also went viral on the Internet.

March 11 was the closing day of the National People's Congress of the Communist Party of China. Li Hongzhong presided over the closing ceremony of the NPC instead of Zhao Leji, and unexpectedly announced that Zhao Leji's absence was due to a respiratory infection. As the Chinese Communist Party has always kept the health status of its leaders confidential, the incident quickly attracted the attention of international media.

Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping also behaved unusually on the same day. A footage captured by foreign media showed that during the meeting, Xi Jinping suddenly pressed the voting machine with his hand, while Chinese Premier Li Qiang, who was sitting next to him, and other officials around him did not make this move. I don’t know whether there is anything wrong with Xi Jinping’s physical or mental health.

During the seventh vote at the closing session, a vote was taken on the resolution on the work report of the Supreme People's Court of the Communist Party of China, with 31 votes against and 12 abstentions. The largest number of votes were against and abstentions. During this process, Xi Jinping had a serious expression on his face, with his hands placed under the rostrum, and seemed to be rubbing his legs constantly. This situation, along with the two cups placed in front of him, sparked heated discussion.

On the overseas Chinese X platform, some netizens said, "The two teacups are very conspicuous." "It means that there is something wrong with his health. One of the two cups must be medicine. If something unexpected happens, he can drink medicine to treat it." "Is he sick?" "Parkinson's?!" "He is obviously impatient." "Maybe he is saying in his heart, '(The Two Sessions) are the same every year, so boring'."

Some netizens also asked: "Can't he scratch his itch?" "Is he physically uncomfortable or mentally uneasy?"

Xi Jinping's health is a hot topic in the world today. Xi Jinping’s painful expression at the closing meeting of the National People’s Congress of the Communist Party of China on 11 March 2024 went viral on the Internet. According to the British Daily Mail, Xi Jinping reached out to pick up a teacup, took a sip, and then unexpectedly showed an extremely painful expression on his face, his eyes were closed, and his face was wrinkled.

At the time, a netizen who claimed to be an "old overseas Chinese doctor" analyzed that: "Long-term drinking caused liver damage and recurrence of hemorrhoids; high stress, long-term lying, and rage led to excessive stomach acid, insulin and bile secretion disorders, and pancreas and small intestine corruption."

There are many rumors that Xi has some serious illness. As early as before Xi Jinping took office at the 18th National Congress of the Communist Party of China in 2012, there were reports that he underwent surgery for a liver tumor.

When the Third Plenary Session of the 18th Central Committee of the Communist Party of China was held in July 2024, news spread that Xi Jinping had fallen to the ground due to a cerebral infarction. After that, Xi disappeared for 21 days, sparking speculation. On the morning of 19 August 2024, Xi welcomed General Secretary of the Communist Party of Vietnam To Lin with a military salute in Beijing. However, the official media Xinhua News Agency and CCTV did not release his close-up image until nearly 6 pm., which sparked controversy during the period. In the picture, Xi Jinping looks basically normal but he has more white hair and his steps seem a little slow.

Some netizens enlarged the photo released by the Vietnam News Agency and saw an area of ​​hair loss on the lower right side of Xi Jinping's head. It is suspected that he had just undergone a craniotomy and his hair has not yet fully grown. At that time, netizens speculated that the hair loss area behind Xi Jinping's ear might be a scar left after surgery, and the location might be where the trigeminal nerve was moved.

The Central Health Commission is an institution dedicated to the medical care of senior officials of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China. The director is concurrently the director of the General Office of the CPC Central Committee, who is currently Xi Jinping's number one confidant, Cai Qi. The only deputy director with a professional background, Zeng Yixin, is said to mainly serve Xi Jinping.

Zeng Yixin was formerly the director of the Cancer Prevention and Treatment Center of Sun Yat-sen University and the director of the South China State Key Laboratory of Oncology. He also served as the vice president of the Chinese Anti-Cancer Association and the editor-in-chief of Cancer magazine. The professional background of Zeng Yixin, the "imperial physician" selected by Xi Jinping, tends to be in the field of tumor-related diseases, which is also suggestive because the news that Xi suffered from a "brain aneurysm" had been circulating on the Internet for a long time.

In addition, in recent years, Xi Jinping has publicly shown signs of physical abnormalities on many occasions, mainly difficulty walking and somewhat unsteady when walking. It is rumored online that Xi Jinping suffers from gout because he loves drinking.
