The team of World Health Organisation experts investigating the origins of the coronavirus met Staff at the Wuhan hospital that received the first confirmed Covid-19 cases, on Saturday before a scheduled tour of a propaganda exhibition celebrating China’s recovery from the pandemic.
The group was driven to the Jinyintan Hospital, the first hospital to receive officially diagnosed Covid-19 patients in late 2019, as the horrors of the virus emerged in the central Chinese city. A team member Peter Daszak in a tweet welcomed the hospital visit as an “Important opportunity to talk directly with medics who were on the ground at that critical time fighting COVID!” The WHO mission is said to have come with heavy political baggage, as it has been delayed over time with China refusing access until mid-January, while there are question marks over what the experts can hope to find a year after the virus first emerged.
