Canada was eulogized for not ensuing US’s example of acting out a travel ban in view of the corona virus outburst according to spokesperson for china’s ministry of foreign affairs.
During an online press conference the spokesperson for foreign ministry tool questions from global media with reference to the corona virus and reproached the US’s reaction to the epidemic claiming they has “overreacted”, as per translated text.
Hua said “Most countries appreciate and support China’s efforts to fight against the novel corona virus, and we understand and respect them when they adopt or enhance quarantine measures at border entry”, adds “But in the meantime, some countries, the U.S. in particular, have inappropriately overreacted”.
On Sunday, the United States started execution of austere travel limits in reaction to the corona virus, and denying access to foreign nationals who visited china in the last 14 day, for the interim.
Hua endorsed Canada for not imposing travel bans like America.
Hua remarked ““Canada believes the ban of entry has no basis, which is a sharp contrast for the U.S. behaviors [sic]”.
Hua kept on rebuking US, expressing they had not “provided any substantive assistance” to china and “the first to evacuate personnel… first to suggest partial withdrawal of its embassy staff and the first to impose a travel ban on Chinese travelers”.
Hua said “What it has done could only create and spread fear” while hoping that other countries will make “reasonable, calm and science-based judgments” concerning corona virus.
On Monday, Canadian health minister Patty Hajdu explained the government’s choice in a press conference to keep away from the travel ban is because they lacked “evidence to support that closing all the borders are necessarily the right way to go”.
Hajdu said “Certainly we know that the evidence suggests actually the opposite – that in fact by closing down the borders it’s much harder to detect where someone is coming from”, further on “open and honest” contact assist in much detailed process of screening.
Avoiding a question at what time the Chinese officials proposes to grant authorization for the federally chartered plane for Canadian expats to Wuhan, Hua declared that both nations were “in communication” related to the matter.
About 325 Canadians are waiting for evacuation in the Hubei region of china, however those who are by now presenting signs of corona virus will not be permitted to board to flight to Trenton, Ont. wherein a 14 days seclusion period is waiting for them.
Canadian health officials had repeatedly denied the possibility of spread of corona virus, and to adhere to the standards concerning flu and cold.
The Chinese community leaders in Canada have condemned the resulting bigoted and sinophobic recoil to the corona virus which resembles the panic of the SARS outbreak in 2003, something the premiere Trudeau reverberated when attending a lunar New Year event last week.–Worldwide News
