January -March 2018 — US Embassy in Beijing repeatedly sends US science diplomats to the Wuhan Institute of Virology. During these visits, the delegation dispatches two Sensitive cables back to Washington, D.C., in which they warn about safety conditions and management at the lab. The first cable reveals that the lab’s work on bat coronaviruses poses a serious threat for another potential SARS-like outbreak.

The Department of Health and Human Services concludes its “Crimson Contagion” simulation in August. The exercise simulated a U.S. response to a fictitious respiratory virus that began in China and quickly spread around the world. The result of the exercise, contained in an internal draft report in October 2019 and marked “Draft Do Not Distribute,” includes a section titled “resources.” The section foregrounds the lack of PPE preparedness in the event of a global pandemic and problems in the supply chain for medical equipment including ventilators and other ancillary medical supplies.
