Concealed Report Reveals U.S. Troops Showed COVID-Like Symptoms in Wuhan in 2019
The Biden administration withheld a mandated report on early COVID-19 cases among U.S. military personnel, now released by the Trump administration, contradicting earlier official claims.
- A December 2022 report disclosed that seven U.S. military service members exhibited COVID-19-like symptoms during the 2019 World Military Games in Wuhan, China.
- The Biden administration failed to release the report as required by law, keeping it from public view until its recent publication by the Trump administration in late March 2025.
- The findings challenge prior government statements that no American participants contracted the virus during the games and add to evidence of COVID-19 circulating in Wuhan before December 2019.
- The report speculates that other respiratory infections may have caused the symptoms, and all affected service members recovered within six days.
- This revelation intensifies scrutiny of the pandemic's origins and raises concerns about government transparency and accountability in handling public health information.
