Eerie: Chinese Journalist Who Disappeared for Weeks After Reporting on the Cover-Up Resurfaces in Video PRAISING Police; U.S. Scientists Not Allowed Into China to Investigate Coronavirus Origins

By The Blaze. A Chinese citizen journalist who went missing for nearly two months after exposing the COVID-19 outbreak in Wuhan has resurfaced in a video praising police for its “civil” and “legal” treatment of him.

Li Zehua, 25, was one of several citizen journalists who went missing in Wuhan after refusing to stay silent about the virus. He was previously last seen on Feb. 26 when he documented his own arrest. After being cut off on the road by a white SUV, Li uploaded a video of him calling a friend to explain the situation and then later started a livestream that ended when two agents entered his apartment.

In the new video, uploaded Wednesday, Li claims that he was arrested by police and subsequently forced to quarantine for several weeks due to his possible exposure to the virus by visiting “sensitive epidemic areas,” according to a translation of the video by the Guardian. . .

“Throughout the whole time, the police acted civilly and legally, making sure I had rest and food. They really cared about me,” he said, adding that he was finally released on March 28 and since then has been spending time with his family.

U.S. Scientists Not Allowed Into China to Investigate Coronavirus Origins, Mike Pompeo Says

By Newsweek. Secretary of State Mike Pompeo has accused China of not allowing American scientists to visit the country and investigate the origins of the COVID-19 coronavirus outbreak, delivering yet another attack on Beijing’s handling of the crisis.

Pompeo told Fox News’ The Ingraham Angle on Wednesday that China is not allowing “the transparency and openness we need” regarding the pandemic, which originated in the central Chinese city of Wuhan and has now spread worldwide.

Pompeo has been among the most vocal critics of China over COVID-19, echoing President Donald Trump’s attacks on Beijing and peddling a conspiracy theory suggesting the virus’ may have originated in a scientific research lab in Wuhan. There is currently no evidence to support the theory, but this has not stopped Pompeo and Trump from alluding to it.

Pompeo told host Laura Ingraham: “Even today, the Chinese government hasn’t permitted American scientists to go into China, to go into not only the Wuhan lab but wherever it needs to go to learn about this virus, to learn about its origins.” (Read more from “U.S. Scientists Not Allowed Into China to Investigate Coronavirus Origins, Mike Pompeo Says” HERE)
