When I googled this, the first thing that came up was Snopes. Even they acknowledged he was arrested, did have ties to Wuhan University. They did not adress the status of his Chinese students (which is kinda a important detail given this claim) and attempted to downplay possible ties to the Coronavirus.
I won't pretend to know what's going on, but I do think we are being lied to. It is supposedly just a really bad flu, yet the quarantine measures and panic at the governmental level are way out of proportion for that. They are acting like it's something much worse.
