Of Course: The US Knew That Seven American Troops Contracted Covid-19 at the Wuhan Games in 2019, But Covered It Up to Protect Hunter Biden's Business Partners in China

I'm assuming that last part.

Joe Biden is a traitor and forgot to pardon himself.

A newly uncovered Defense Department report reveals that seven U.S. troops may have contracted COVID-19 during the 2019 World Military Games in Wuhan--months before the official pandemic timeline. The Biden administration kept the report from the public for over two years, despite a legal requirement to release it.

The World Military Games featured active duty military personnel from various countries competing in Olympic-style games. That year they were held in Wuhan.

Just down the street from the Wuhan Infectious Virus Lab.

Key Details:

A December 2022 Pentagon report shows seven U.S. service members showed COVID-like symptoms after attending the 2019 Wuhan games.

The Biden administration withheld the report, which was required by law to be made public in 2022, until it was quietly posted online in March 2025.

Evidence contradicts Biden officials' 2021 claims and adds weight to theories that COVID-19 leaked from a Chinese lab before December 2019.

Diving Deeper:

The Biden administration withheld a critical Pentagon report for more than two years, one that sheds new light on the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic. According to documents obtained by the Washington Free Beacon, seven U.S. military service members may have contracted COVID-19 during or shortly after the 2019 World Military Games in Wuhan, China--a full two months before China officially acknowledged the outbreak.

The report, completed in December 2022, was mandated for public release by the National Defense Authorization Act. Yet, the administration only passed it to select Congressional committees and failed to make it publicly accessible as required. It wasn't until March 2025 that the report quietly appeared on a Defense Department site under a section dedicated to "quality-of-life" issues--far from public view.

This revelation directly contradicts claims made by Biden administration officials in 2021, including then-Defense Department spokesman John Kirby, who stated there was "no knowledge" of any infections among the U.S. participants. The Trump administration had also denied early on that troops were tested or showed symptoms, citing the timing of the games before China's outbreak announcement.

Held just miles from the Wuhan Institute of Virology--where controversial, U.S.-funded gain-of-function research was conducted--the 2019 games have long drawn suspicion from national security and public health experts.

...

Adding more context, athletes from European countries such as France, Germany, and Italy also reported flu-like symptoms in Wuhan, describing the city at the time as unusually empty--a "ghost town." All seven American service members recovered quickly, and the Pentagon has not revealed when it first became aware of the cases.

Deep State bureaucrats love hiding information and do so with impunity because they know DC judges and juries will never convict them for self-dealing and even treason.

The acting commissioner of the IRS, for example, is resigning rather than authorize ICE gaining access to IRS records about illegal aliens.

The acting commissioner of the Internal Revenue Service is planning to resign following the agency's data sharing agreement with the Department of Homeland Security to support the Trump administration's efforts to deport undocumented immigrants, three sources familiar with her plans told ABC News.

It was never particularly dangerous to healthy people.

Subtracting two months from the duration from the outbreak let them claim that it was spreading far more rapidly and was scarier than it actually was.

We've know since the San Diego serology study in March (?) 2020 that far more people had been exposed to it than the government was acknowledging, which would have pushed the case fatality rate down by a couple of orders of magnitude, but people preferred to be scared.

Me: Did the commissioner of the IRS resign over the theft of tax filings that were given to propublica?

ChatGPT: No, the commissioner of the IRS did not resign following the unauthorized disclosure of tax filings of prominent citizens to ProPublica. In June 2021, ProPublica published an investigative report based on confidential IRS data, revealing how some of the wealthiest Americans legally minimize their income tax payments. In response, IRS Commissioner Charles Rettig stated that the agency was investigating the source of the leak and emphasized that unauthorized disclosure of taxpayer information is a felony. However, Rettig did not resign over this incident.

I wonder if will ever find out who was truly making the decisions on anything during Biden's term
Posted by: Bitcoin Fixes Everything at April 09, 2025 04:45 PM (V6W16)

I expect there were at least a half dozen faction leaders setting the erratic policies, with Jill Biden picking who won on each particular issue and releasing Biden to play the muppet for their win. it is a scandal that who was who and how many arent generally known. Victoria Newland was one. The Secretary of State. Pentagon was a different faction who usually cooled the jets of the loons working on nuclear war.

94 A friend's daughter and son-in-law were in China on business in the Fall of 2019, and both fell sick when they'd returned but not before visiting her dad, apparently spreading the virus. My friend, who was in his 80's, was severely ill and spent several weeks in the hospital before he recovered enough to be allowed home, but his health has never fully recovered to pre-December 2019. He later had to conclude they'd all had Covid.

97 The 2019 Military World Games, officially known as the 7th CISM Military World Games, and commonly known as Wuhan 2019, was held from October 18–27, 2019, in Wuhan, Hubei, China. The 7th Military World Games was the first international military multisport event to be held in China. The event was also the nation's largest military sports event ever with 9,308 athletes from 109 countries competing in 329 events and 27 sporting disciplines.

The first Super Spreader event. We knew this was a big deal at the time because all the early COVID countries like Spain and Italy were represented.

That's too bad. I believe it did hit the vulnerable particularly hard. I'm pretty darn sure my grandmother in her 90s had it in late 2019 -- she had a flu/cold that she could not shake and she finally said "Take me to the ER." She was in the hospital on fluids and such for about a week and in the end they could only diagnose her with some vague flu/virus. Fortunately, she recovered completely. AND she got it again in 202? and recovered with barely any symptoms in 2 days.

124 What's patently obvious to anyone with a brain is that Biden was doing China's bidding because he was beholden to them for personal gain (and likely compromising blackmail). This instance, the "weather" balloon, and another issue that doesn't receive the scrutiny that it deserves.

Biden pretended to take a hard line with China by keeping tariffs on them. China didn't make any waves about that because it was a mainland China tariff and China has expanded outward over the last decade to manufacture in third party countries (Vietnam, Mexico, Canada, Indonesia etc). So the tariff on Mainland China held by Biden was Kabuki.

Interestingly, when Vietnam immediately capitulated on tariffs and contacted the White House almost immediately, it was based on any cooperative attitudes. It was the result of China telling them to do so. I suspect they will take the same approach with their other third party manufacturer countries. Notice how compliant Mexico has been.

232 Yeah, C19 was out & about at least 6 months before it was publicly acknowledged in the US.

Written before, late summer/early fall a woman (>60, great condition) who attended a local (Philly region) zumba class vacationed in Europe twice within a month. One of the two vacations was definitely to Italy; Milan, Isle of Capri, etc.

Upon her return to the US, she was exhausted but thought it might be a normal reaction. Within days, she was being studied by physicians in a variety of fields including cardiology, lungs, brain, and ophthalmology. There were no answers to her overwhelming weakness, headaches. Months passed.

She was finally about to return class March 2020. That very day, we were dismissed right after arriving & instructed not to return for "2 weeks."

The entire county closed March 13th and remained closed for more than 15 months. When opened, it was with restrictions. The 1st case in the collar counties was to have began when a physician returned to Montgomery County from China. The 2nd began by an associate going to my (Delware) county's prison.

According to an official report from the Social Security Administration:

"SSA also employs software routines that match earnings to the correct individuals' records."

Translation: The government uses software to cross-reference reported earnings with the correct Social Security records, which means they often know when a valid SSN is being used fraudulently.

Estimates suggest that up to 75% of illegal immigrants are using valid, but not legally assigned, Social Security Numbers.

I was ordering a bunch of gear and supplies for a hiking trip scheduled for Mar 2020; that’s how I think I caught it in Feb; possibly from the UK. They have these cool energy bars - Kendall Mint Cake, and possibly, at the time a great deal on Alpine Milka chocolate from Germany. I was already “social distancing” since about 2012 lol

246 Which... we saw happen in real time, and the Courts would not, and still have not, done a fucking thing about.

To this day I'd like to see a tremendously high-dollar and well-prepared law firm file a legal appeal for somebody who was convicted in a court hearing where the defendant and all those who testified against the defendant were masked.

One of the principles of a fair trail in this country is that we're supposed to get to face our accusers. This principle was not followed once the defendant and those testifying were masked-up. No, I'm not kidding. Juries like to believe they can read faces and that it helps them discern truthful words from fiction. I've never felt right about those who were convicted during the masking era.

They obviously are using social security numbers, but no one is getting arrested for felony identify theft, so I guess it's okay.

The information on the bat studies disappeared from their webpage in the summer or early fall, if I recall. August or September.

So I'd say it's safe to say that by then they were well aware that the virus was out in the wild.

ace, I do adore you, but isn't that like blaming Herbert Hoover for being too interventionist in the face of the international collapse of the 1920's bubble that was created by various interventions to prevent the post WWI recession?

I mean, yes, he was, but FDR not only lied about his intentions and tripled down, he also spent his political capital shoveling relief monies into the pockets of the best friends he could buy.

At some point you have to piss on them all, and ask what they did right, instead.

266 I had the worst respiratory virus of my life in Nov 2019. A few days in bed, just sleeping non-stop. Sore throat, fever, chills, stomach problems. Then, in late Dec 2019 I got mega-sick again with the same thing for a few days.

By mid-January 2020 I was pretty sure it had been covid. Of course, all the experts told me that wasn’t possible, it wasn’t in the US then.

I never got tested, so I dunno.

269 >>I tend to agree with you, but I can't prove it, so I mostly leave that assertion out.

Go back and look at the response to AIDS where Fauci was also scalded for his mismanagement but it didn't get as much publicity because it mostly involved gay men.

You will find Fauci, USAID and the Clinton Foundation.

Remember when Fauci made his mysterious trip to the CIA in the middle of the virus response and we found out the CIA analysts were paid to change their analysis from the lab to bat soup at a Chinese Boston Market?

If Fauci wasn't CIA why didn't our super duper, know everything intel agency not uncover any of his work with the Wuhan lab but a bunch of chucklehead nobodies on twitter did by reviewing public information?

Posted by: JackStraw at April 09, 2025 05:37 PM (LkLld)

270 >>> Yeah, C19 was out & about at least 6 months before it was publicly acknowledged in the US.

Lockdown was an op from the start.
WE (TPTB) knew it was lose in the states and came up with this bizarre idea that on a forcast "D-Day" there is going to be mass infection so then on D-Day mimus two (or whatever) we'll just stay home for two weeks and the wave will pass.

Pointing how ludicrous the idea was put one on virtually a terrorist watchlist.

271 Pointing how ludicrous the idea was put one on virtually a terrorist watchlist.

Also when it was suggested back in the 80s to "lock down" gay men with AIDS to stop the spread we were told only a NAZI would ever lock someone down because of a communicable disease.

And of course the irony is it would almost certainly have worked...

272 The outbreak of Covid-like illness following the Wuhan Military Games was not a very well kept secret. It's just that the media made a deliberate choice to NOT include it in their coverage.

I still think the release of Covid just might have been deliberate, and that the CCP experts believed it would be seen as a seasonal flu outbreak. And then it started to ravage the elderly and infirm. The experts in the West then freaked out because they KNEW where it came from: A CCP Bioweapons Laborotory.

273 Normally the conspiracy theories that come true are like 80% of what was part of the "conspiracy theory" but im pretty sure i heard this exact scenario like 2-3 years ago, where "conspiracy theorist" mentioned that the virus was leaked during the games so it would hit the whole western world.

275 "150 I see MarineVet is overlooking the minor fact President Trump talked about reopening the country on Easter Sunday. However, he was dissuaded from doing so by the "experts." And those same "experts" had to be pardoned by Joe Biden."

Trump talked about opening the nation for Easter while at the exact same moment he was physically signing 30 more days to slow the spread, which extended the lock down past Easter Sunday...

Then, once that 30 days was over, instead of extending the lockdowns officially like a real man would do, he hid the lockdown extensions in a misnamed document called Opening Up America Again, "https://trumpwhitehouse.archives.gov/openingamerica/". I hope linking things here is not verboten!

Now, if you are a low information imbecile, your here cheering on, so I think that applies, you would see that as Trump acting to Open America Back Up, but being an imbecile, you would be wrong.

Instead, what it did was tell people the exact same things that 15 Days to Slow the Spread and 30 Days to Slow the Spread did. If you meet these criteria, you can be open, if you meet these criteria, you must close down or remain locked down.

I voted for Trump in 2020.

276 IRS Criminal Investigation releases updated COVID fraud statistics on 4th anniversary of CARES Act; nearly $9 billion investigated. IR-2024-83, March 28, 2024

In part, "WASHINGTON — Four years after the enactment of a key pandemic-era law, the Internal Revenue Service released updated numbers showing Criminal Investigation (CI) has investigated 1,644 tax and money laundering cases related to COVID fraud potentially totaling $8.9 billion, with well over half that amount coming from cases opened in the last year.

These cases include a wide range of criminal activity, including fraudulently obtained loans, credits and payments meant for American workers, families and small businesses under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act.

As of Feb. 29, 795 people have been indicted for their alleged COVID-related crimes and 373 individuals have been sentenced to an average of 34 months in federal prison. During the last four years, CI has obtained a 98.5% conviction rate in prosecuted COVID fraud cases."

And 255, above.
