Dr Li first reported it to s small group of drs on Dec 30, we did not know about it till mid January.
The Chinese locked him up and made him write a redaction, sign an affidavit that he was a "Liar" and "Fearmonger" in January 1 week before he died .
see the netflix docu "Understanding Corana virus".
Its funny, you blame trump when China is clearly at fault. The very Left leaning Netflix even states that 95% of the cases would have never happened if China listened to DR Li instead of jailing him.The virus most likely would have never left Wuhan they also said.
