Jiang was appointed party secretary of Hubei in October 2016.[6] On February 12, 2020, Jiang was removed from his post as Party secretary of Hubei as a result of his handling of the COVID-19 pandemic, and was replaced by Ying Yong, mayor of Shanghai and a close ally of General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party Xi Jinping.[7]
