Purtroppo è morto anche il medico che a fine dicembre aveva cercato di avvisare del nuovo virus ed era stato fermato dalla polizia:
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-china-51403795A Chinese doctor who tried to issue the first warnings about the deadly coronavirus outbreak has died of the infection, Chinese media say.
Li Wenliang was working as an ophthalmologist at Wuhan Central Hospital when he sent out a warning to fellow medics on 30 December.
Police then visited him to tell him to stop, as authorities tried to keep the news under wraps.
The virus has now killed more than 560 people and infected 28,000 in China.
The coronavirus causes severe acute respiratory infection and symptoms usually start with a fever, followed by a dry cough. Most people infected are likely to fully recover - just as they would from a flu.
What is Li Wenliang's story?
The ophthalmologist posted his story on the Weibo site from a hospital bed a month after sending out his initial warning.
Dr Li, 34, had noticed seven cases of a virus that he thought looked like Sars - the virus that led to a global epidemic in 2003.

Five need-to-know things about virus
On 30 December he sent a message to fellow doctors in a chat group warning them to wear protective clothing to avoid infection.
Four days later he was summoned to the Public Security Bureau where he was told to sign a letter. In the letter he was accused of "making false comments" that had "severely disturbed the social order".
He was one of eight people who police said were being investigated for "spreading rumours"
Local authorities later apologised to Dr Li.
