This reminds me of a rather odd video that I saw - oh, it must have been in 2022 - made by an American who was living in Wuhan. He said that he got all the symptoms of the 'rona in October 2019, so he was claiming that the virus was released in October at the latest. He also said some pretty alarming things about a high death rate in early 2020: stuff like farmers dropping dead and then their livestock dying because nobody was feeding them. It was a really grisly video and I never thought much about it because there was so little that I could find to confirm it... until now.
