A novel coronavirus On December 30 last year, Dr. Ai Fen, Director of medical emergency at Wuhan Central hospital in Hubei province, received the lab results of a patient with flu-like symptoms that had proved to be resistant to prescribed treatment.
The South China Morning Post also reported on March 13 that another doctor, Zhang Jixian, of the Hubei Provincial Hospital of Integrated Chinese and Western Medicine, had reported to China's health authorities at an even earlier date - on December 27 last year - that the flu-like disease that had stricken a rising number of patients was caused by a new coronavirus.
This makes the study official, being sanctioned by the highest echelons of China's central government. Yet, despite this officially-sanctioned research results, on January 19, in their very first public statement to the World Health Organization , Chinese officials insisted it was a "preventable and controllable" animal-to-human disease, saying available evidence only connected it to the seafood market in Wuhan, where the new virus emerged.
Under the law of state responsibility, China has certain international obligations it should have dutifully observed in dealing with the COVID-19 disease. The law of state responsibility defines the conditions and consequences of wrongful conduct of states under international law. This is known as the "objective interpretation of state responsibility", which protects the integrity and stability of the international legal order. Thus, an international wrong done by a state does not become a right simply because no one complained against it.
First drafted in 1969, it covered six "quarantinable" diseases, but was later amended in 1973 and 1981 to cover only three infectious diseases - cholera, plague, and yellow fever - thus reflecting the WHO's success in fighting infectious diseases. However, when the first coronavirus epidemic - the Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome - broke out in 2003 in China, the IHR could not be invoked for that reason.
The earliest report appears to have been made on December 27 last year by Dr. Shang, followed three days later by Dr. Ai and Dr. Li. So, on the basis of the IHR protocol, China had 48 hours to assess whether this "unusual event" is of the nature of an public health emergency of an international concern.
