IMO they knew before late November. This report is designed to mask when they originally knew of spread in China.

Likely knew when Trump was taken to Walter Reed. See thread.

Likely the fear for Trump that led to his being immediately transported to Walter Reed was grounded in the meeting with Liu He in October.

Was that delegation an attempted assasination of @realDonaldTrump?

Was Trump asymptomatic?

Hmm...

Trump says we are “at war” with an ”invisible enemy”.

Has he been signaling to China that he knows what they attempted?

If I’m right that Liu He carried with him COVID-19 when he met Trump in Oval Office in October 2019 then imagine Chinese surprise that Trump and his officials didn’t get sick.

It would be enough to spook them into cancelling the Trump Xi face to face scheduled for October 30.
Which only brings up more questions.
