Last edited Tue Apr 7, 2020, 01:18 PM - Edit history (1)
Dr. Ai Fen is a doctor at the Wuhan Central Hospital.
She was perhaps among the first doctors to discover the Wuhan virus. After speaking out against the authorities, Dr. Ai Fen has gone missing. WION's Palki Sharma brings you the Ai Fen revelations.

Added link to WION web page with story. For some reason clicking the link for the video might bring up an Epoch Times ad.

I saw it reported at MSN and Daily mail, I should have checked more.
I did not realize WION was sketchy.
Should I delete?

WION didnt show when I played it. It popped up as Epoch Times. Weird.
