While people panic around the world, these are the pictures on Chinese state TV. There is a real ‘Mission Accomplished’ feel to the gov’t media #coronavirus coverage - with delegation after delegation of doctors, nurses & others departing #Wuhan as new infections there dwindle.
For those who doubt the declining infections in #Wuhan, it’s a rather elaborate PR effort to pull out all these medical teams and stage these welcoming home ceremonies if the virus is still ravishing the city. Remember the lockdown there still in place, nowhere near normal yet.
You can see from the coverage that China’s gov’t is wrapping these legitimately heroic medical workers in the flag. Beijing is also kicking out many foreign journalists this week and now sadly punishing some their Chinese colleagues, so dont take these state reports at face value
