In an incident that raised the ire of those at Nanjing Airport in China, where a Chinese couple forced their children to be abandoned after one of them was suspected of being infected with the deadly virus, Corona, and prevented by officials from boarding the plane.
In the details of the accident, according to the newspaper “Express”, she said: “The family was trying to board a plane at Nanjing Airport in China, but the parents left behind their son and daughter at the departure gate after it was found that the boy’s temperature was alarmingly high, which raised Fears that he might be infected with the Corona virus.
Passers-by at the airport were injured – according to the newspaper – in a state of amazement when the two children were seen abandoned and lonely, who were taken care of by airport staff.
The pictures published on the Chinese social media website, “Weibo,” revealed the two children sitting at the departure gate without supervision, while several other passengers lined up to enter the plane.
The newspaper pointed out that the children’s family was trying to travel from Nanjing to Changsha, Hunan Province, on Xiamen Airlines MF8040.
According to the testimony of one of the passengers, it was discovered that the boy’s body temperature was 38.5 degrees Celsius. The airline did not allow the boy to board the plane. “
This incident led to a confrontation between parents and airport staff in order to allow their children to leave together with them. However, after the employees insisted on refusing, the parents began to take the plane without their son and daughter.
And a passenger said, “Finally, the staff allowed the parents to board the plane,” before the eyewitness added that “the two children were left alone at the airport.”
The accident lasted two hours and ended with the help of the police, who were able to mediate between the angry parents and the airline employees.
The Chinese family stated that although two children were allowed to board the plane, they were sitting at the front of the cabin after several passengers expressed concern about their proximity to the boy, whose body temperature was high.
The number of corona virus victims in China has risen to 132, and the number of cases has reached 5974 cases, according to the announcement of the National Health Committee of China.
The Chinese authorities confirmed, earlier, the spread of a new type of “Corona” virus, since late December last year, which was called “2019-nCoV” and causes pneumonia.
