136 people died as a result of the mysterious virus and more than 9,000 were infected • Evacuation of foreign nationals targeted by the outbreak in Wuhan began • First voices of protest in the country

Corona outbreak in China: Significant surge in coronary virus casualties was recorded in China on Wednesday, when China's National Health Commission reported that the death toll was up to 136, with 9,226 people now.

The new data shows that for the first time since the corona virus outbreak began, the number of casualties outweighed those affected by the outbreak of the SARS virus in China between 2002 and 2003.

For the first time, there are first signs of protests in China against the authorities for treating the disease outbreak. The Associated Press reported that Wuhan City resident journalist Zhang Opa posted an unprecedented post on the social network Weibo and attacked local government.

"In light of current circumstances, abnormal and dangerous circumstances that are getting worse every day, the district's leaders do not have what it takes to lead it," the reporter wrote in a later deleted post, but not before seen by millions. In China, such a blatant attack on the authorities, including the locals, is not commonplace and is indicative of the worsening situation in Hubei Province, where the outbreak began.
