Two officials in China have been suspended after a 16-year-old boy with cerebral palsy died when his father was quarantined for suspected coronavirus. Yan Cheng was found dead on Wednesday, a week after his father and brother were sent to quarantine. The boy was fed only twice since left alone. Both the local Communist Party secretary and mayor in Huajiahe town were sacked after the incident garnered attention.
