Banning foreigners who travelled to China could be in violation of civil rights, says Beijing. FMTNews China

Spokeswoman Hua Chunying says US government hasn’t provided any substantial assistance.

“The US government hasn’t provided any substantial assistance to us, but it was the first to evacuate personnel from its consulate in Wuhan, the first to suggest partial withdrawal of its embassy staff, and the first to impose a travel ban on Chinese travellers,” Chinese foreign ministry spokeswoman Hua Chunying told reporters on Monday.

China’s death toll has climbed to 361 and its confirmed cases now top 17,000, fueling scepticism about the government’s ability to constrain it. Its fast spread has rattled global governments, travellers and markets, with Chinese stocks on Monday falling the most since 2015 and commodity markets collapsing as trading resumed after the break.Health chiefs from both sides – Ma Xiaowei, Director of China’s National Health Committee, and Alex M Azar II, the US’ Secretary of Health and Human Services – also held a phone call Jan 27.

Hua, the foreign ministry spokeswoman, said that China would still cooperate with the US even as she criticised its response to the virus.
