COVID whistleblower recalls a year after his death

 


Residents of the Chinese city of Wuhan have not forgotten the whistleblower doctor who warned the world about COVID-19 before he himself died a year ago.

Li Wenliang, a 34-year-old ophthalmologist from Wuhan at a local hospital, became a poignant symbol of the outbreak’s beginnings, before it was officially recognized. When he tried to sound the alarm, he was reprimanded by Chinese authorities for spreading rumors.

He was the first to tell us about the virus, Li Pan, 24, from Wuhan, who has an online store, told Reuters Saturday.

He must have thought the impact would be huge, but he sounded the alarm anyway. It was really brave, Li said.

The doctor’s death on February 7, 2020 sparked both massive public mourning and a rare outcry online. Zhong Nanshan, a renowned epidemiologist, mourned over Li in an interview, calling him a hero of China.

But when President Xi Jinping honored the heroes of the People’s War on the Virus in September, he didn’t say a word about Li.

Life in Wuhan has for the most part resumed its pre-COVID rhythm, but residents said Li is still revered there.

Ji Penghui, a 34-year-old designer, credited Li with waking him up to the dangers of the virus early on. He said he rushed to stock up on masks before officials told the public anything about them.

The public strongly recognizes this, and personally I think he should be receiving more official honors, rather than being treated like what he did is already a thing of the past, Ji said.
