My name is on this story about the roots of China's viral crisis. But it's really the work of a great orchestra of journalists, especially our Chinese colleagues in the Beijing bureau: Elsie, Claire, Zoe, Amber, Yiwei and Albee. I thank them; you can too. https://t.co/2zhvB1L70v

100% of my WeChat feed, from dissident lawyers to Huawei employees, is raging over Li’s death. Haven’t seen China unified like this since the Wenzhou train crash. pic.twitter.com/lJQE1XMJBQ
