關鍵三天中國如何遮掩武漢肺炎 3 Days that Stopped the World | Al Jazeera Investigations


《半島電視台》(Aj Jazeera)由兩位中國調查記者楊駿及陳偉(Yang Jun & Chen Wei,暫譯化名)製拍節目〈關鍵三天中國如何遮掩武漢肺炎 〉(3 Days that Stopped the World)從2020年1月19日至22日,公布從未出現的畫面。

Mid January, 2020. Two Chinese journalists were sent to Wuhan to investigate a mysterious virus outbreak. This is their account of the three days before Wuhan entered lockdown. The World Health Organization held meetings to decide if the epidemic was a global health emergency. It did not consider it so. When the journalists arrive, locals were busy preparing for upcoming Chinese New Year celebration. At the time, not much was known about the virus that was just days away from changing the world. Then came a pivotal announcement: human-to-human transmission was confirmed. The journalists witnessed a city of 11 million people transform overnight. Initial nonchalance was quickly replaced by panic. People started wearing masks, shops were shuttered. They shuttled between the increasingly saturated hospitals and Huanan Seafood Market, at the time thought to be the epicentre of this contagion. And they were stopped at every juncture. Their reports were censored and their investigations blocked.
