A 117-page secret document from the Hubei Center for Disease Control and Prevention in China has been leaked to the media. According to secret documents obtained by CNN, Chinese officials have shared much more optimism about the COVID-19 pandemic than the world situation.
It is noted that the documents were delivered to them by a person working in the Chinese health care system, the documents were examined by 6 independent experts and their authenticity was confirmed. It is said that these documents are the most important documents leaked from China since the beginning of the COVID-19 epidemic, and that local authorities have important information about when and what they knew inside at the beginning of the epidemic.
According to the documents, there were shortcomings in the health care system in China, the detection and confirmation of cases of COVID-19 in the early stages of the epidemic in the country took up to 23 days, and many of them failed because of test failures. At the same time, people were warned about the danger late. Although Chinese officials have identified the city of Wuhan in Hubei Province as the epicenter of the coronavirus epidemic, other neighboring cities in Wuhan in early December reported 20 times more flu outbreaks than in the previous year. The documents did not contain any information about the alleged leakage of the virus from the laboratory.
