Nobody knew about the COVID-19 virus in particular at the time, but there is plenty of evidence that it was circulating in Wuhan in mid-2019, and US soldiers who participated in the World Military Games held in Wuhan in October 2019.
But as part of a Congressionally mandated investigation, the Biden administration was required to report to Congress any evidence that soldiers contracted the virus on their trip to China, and Biden’s Pentagon not only failed to disclose that their records indicated that soldiers had likely contracted the disease, but they outright denied it when asked in 2021.
