- Defector Wei Jingsheng said virus may have first spread at military tournament
- Reports emerged in October 2019 athletes at event fell ill with mystery sickness
- Mr Jingsheng alleged China deliberately spread virus during Military Games
- He claims he took his concerns to senior figures in the US gov but was ignored
A whistleblower has sensationally claimed China deliberately spread Covid at a military tournament two months before the rest of the world knew about the deadly virus.
Ex-Chinese Communist Party insider Wei Jingsheng said The World Military Games in October 2019 could have acted as the virus’ first superspreader event.
The international tournament for military athletes was held in Wuhan – the origin of the Covid-19 pandemic – two months before China notified the World Health Organisation about its first cases.
Mr Jingsheng claimed it was no coincidence some of the 9,000 international athletes who gathered for the event reportedly became sick with a mystery illness.
