Yeah, I was under the same impression as you. I read online a bit and saw stuff about Jintao being unwell. Apparently he was escorted in as well (which is left out of any Western press I saw). I wanted to see it for myself and another user posted the video on here.
Comparing that footage to the shot of him being escorted out, the person doing the escorting is probably the same person, he's wearing the same tie, but has a mask on later so I can't say for sure. The Congress lasts like a week though so the video of him getting led in was on the 16th and the escorting out happened on the 22nd. It's hard to say what transpired there.
