  • China: Wuhan's silenced hero: the doctor who warned of a possible coronavirus epidemic and was arrested

The second son of Li Wenliang , the young medical hero who was the first to alarm about the spread of the coronavirus in China , has been born in a hospital in Wuhan , reports the South China Morning Post . "My husband, do you see us from heaven?" Fu Xuejie , widow of Dr. Li, wrote on WeChat , the Chinese social media and messaging app. "Your last gift was born today. I will work hard to love and protect you."

Li Wenliang's story went around the world: he was the first to launch, in December 2019, the alarm about the spread of a new form of Sars-like coronavirus. His message was intercepted by the police, who arrested him on charges of creating scaremongering by "spreading false information on the Internet."

On January 23, Beijing would take emergency measures to curb the uncontrolled spread of the virus with the blockade of Wuhan. The ophthalmologist would die on February 6 at age 33, leaving his wife pregnant and a 5-year-old son. After his disappearance, the Chinese authorities awarded medals to the doctor and to 32 other people to commemorate their sacrifices in the fight against Covid-19 .
