On the evening of February 28, 2020, President Xi Jinping made a telephone conversation with Chilean President Pinella by appointment.

Xi Jinping pointed out that the new crown pneumonia epidemic was a major public health emergency with the fastest spread, the widest range of infections, and the most difficult prevention and control since the founding of New China. After the epidemic occurred, I personally directed the deployment, and all the people in the country worked together to help each other and adopted the most comprehensive, strictest, and most thorough prevention and control measures. After hard work, the situation of epidemic prevention and control is positively expanding. We are fully confident, capable, and confident to win this fight against epidemic prevention and control.
