BEIJING � Mexican officials angry about China's decision to quarantine
more than 70 Mexicans over swine flu fears sent a plane Monday to the
communist country to bring its citizens back home. China sent its own
plane to retrieve Chinese nationals stranded in Mexico.
Mexican President Felipe Calderon complained of a backlash against
Mexicans abroad, and sent the chartered plane on Monday morning to fly
to several cities and pick up Mexicans who wanted to leave China. In
one case, the Mexican ambassador said, a family with three small
children were rousted from their hotel before dawn and taken to a
hospital.
"I think it's unfair that because we have been honest and transparent
with the world some countries and places are taking repressive and
discriminatory measures because of ignorance and disinformation,"
Calderon said.
China's Foreign Ministry denied Mexicans were singled out.
Late Monday, China sent a chartered flight to Mexico City to pick up
200 stranded Chinese nationals, the official Xinhua News Agency
reported. The flight was expected to return Wednesday morning, the
report said.
The Chinese Foreign Ministry added that it hoped Mexico would "address
the issue in an objective and calm manner." China had earlier canceled
the only direct flights between China and Mexico, a twice weekly
service by Aeromexico.
"This is purely a question of health inspection and quarantine,"
ministry spokesman Ma Zhaoxu said in a statement.
A group of 29 Canadian university students and a professor also have
been quarantined at a hotel in China since the weekend over swine flu
fears. Canada has 140 confirmed cases of swine flu. The group does not
have any flu symptoms, University of Montreal spokeswoman Sophie
Langlois said Monday.
China had quarantined 71 Mexicans at hospitals and hotels, Mexico's
Foreign Secretary Patricia Espinoza said. None of the travelers in
isolation has swine flu symptoms and most had no contact with infected
people or places, Mexico's ambassador, Jorge Guajardo.
None of those in isolation had symptoms and most had no contact with
infected persons or places, he said.
In Hong Kong, 274 people remained isolated in a hotel Monday after a
Mexican traveler there was determined to have swine flu. The Hong Kong
government originally said 350 people were in the hotel but revised
the figure Monday.
Mexico also criticized Argentina, Peru and Cuba for banning flights.
Argentina sent a chartered plan to Mexico to collect Argentines
wanting to return home, and set up a field hospital at its airport in
Buenos Aires to handle incoming passengers with symptoms.
World Health Organization flu chief Keiji Fukuda said quarantines were
a "long-established principle" that makes sense in the early phases of
an outbreak, but not once a full pandemic is under way.
"As we get later on into Phase 6 (the highest pandemic alert level)
then these sorts of measures will become less useful because there
will just be more infections around and you can't quarantine everyone
in the world," he said.
China's authoritarian government doesn't stand on niceties when
shifting into crisis mode, locking down much of the country during
last summer's Beijing Olympics and sealing off Tibetan areas following
anti-government protests last year.
Its responses can often be extreme, shifting from neglectful to
over-the-top. During the 2003 outbreak of SARS, or severe acute
respiratory syndrome, officials went from denying they had a problem
to shutting down much of the country and quarantining scores of people
virtually overnight.
