Reuters wire service reported an outbreak of an unknown pneumonia causing disease in Wuhan in December of 2019: https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/31/reuters-america-chinese-officials-investigate-cause-of-pneumonia-outbreak-in-wuhan.html https://www.cnbc.com/2019/12/31/reuters-america-chinese-offi... So did AFP, which resulted in sites like Yahoo covering it. The only two articles on Zero Hedge to reference pneumonia between Nov 1 2019 and Jan 1 2020 are a link about two people caught the plague (which was never eradicated) in Beijing (not Wuhan): https://www.zerohedge.com/health/fears-pneumonic-plague-outbreak-after-2-diagnosed-china-hospital-lockdown https://www.zerohedge.com/health/fears-pneumonic-plague-outb... And an unrelated article about superbugs, antibiotic resistant bacteria.
