At the Military Olympics, October 2019, Wuhan, China, Athletes Caught Covid

By Jeffrey A. Tucker

It’s going to take far more than a few investigators to piece together the timeline of the great disaster of our times, much less figure out all the parties responsible. As an example, I’ve followed this as closely as anyone but one key date somehow eluded my radar until now. 

It is the Military World Games held in Wuhan, China, 2019, drawing athletes from all over the world. In this high profile event, 9,308 athletes from 109 countries competed in 329 events in 27 sports. It is highly likely that Covid was already known to be there, a fact which destroys the timelines of many people on all sides of the issue.

So far there have been no deep investigations into the question. US personnel were never tested. But the fact of widespread sickness after the games was well known by everyone who was there, and this was true in most countries. Doctors examining patients at the time described it as a “bad cold” but the symptoms they reported are unmistakably Covid, of the most severe variety (“wild type”), lasting many weeks with long recovery periods. 

This was months before Covid made the headlines, and long before Jeremy Farar and Anthony Fauci claimed to have been made aware of the virus (December 31, 2019). Until now, I’ve believed them. I’m beginning to doubt that. 

If these games resulted in vast sickness on the part of so many, with unusual but similar symptoms, surely the possibility of a problem perhaps located in Wuhan would have been widely known in those circles. 

Another telling sign that everyone noticed upon arrival in Wuhan in October: the city was empty. The highways had no cars. The retail shops were closed. No one was on the streets. For a city of 11 million, this was spooky. The CCP bragged that they had cleared out the city to make life special for the athletes but it was clearly a first sign of lockdown.
