So you go and look at factual pollution numbers.
On the index, using Atlanta as a comparison....on the PM-10 situation....Atlanta has only a '19' rating (meaning marginal pollution situation).....while Wuhan has a '124' rating, for air pollution (meaning harsh situation in the extremes).
On the pollution index ranking.....whatever Atlanta has.....it's twice that bad for Wuhan.
Protests over this? Both in 2018 and 2019.....various groups in Wuhan tried to make a protest movement about the local situation.
My humble belief? Maybe it's not discussed much by news journalists, but in terms of lung damage (if you've lived in Wuhan for the past twenty years).....you've probably accumulated a fair amount of dust and soot into your system, and it's affecting your lung capacity. So a fairly decent flu starts up, and your immune system isn't four-star to start with, and your odds of dying rapidly go up if you smoke, or have a secondary condition existing already.
