The problem with any such theory is that we did not see exponential grown in COVID-19 cases until +/_ Feb 21. Whatever statistics about the odd case here and there, it could not have been widespread much earlier or the exponentiation would have started much earlier.
Given that it exponentiated by 10 fold increases week after week after that, we could not have missed the introduction of widespread cases by more than a week.,

It was HERE, in late 2019, early 2020. The 64 dollar question is
HOW LONG did the ChiComs sit on information about it until it couldn't be covered up anymore. That's what I'm focused on. What did those aholes know and when did they know it.

You would not expect to “see” exponential growth at all until it crossed over from the healthy, athletic military people described here into a portion of the population that was older or had underlying health conditions because nobody would be hospitalized or die and be tested until the disease had already spread to that point.
Once it reached a point where it triggered an alarmed reaction it would already be spread throughout the populace and it would seem to be spreading far more rapidly than it was because it had a big unmonitored head start.
Which a good number of Americans have believed was the case from the beginning.
A minimum number deaths early on didn't mean that it wasn't present and spreading, it meant that military personnel tend to be somewhat insular.

Might that be because we werent testing prior and have seen growth as test availability grows? Just wondering. I want the antibody test. Until last December I never had a respiratory illness that I thought might kill me. Then I got one. Thought I was going to drown. The fluid was there in the lungs and wouldnt come up. Any deep breaths resulted in a choking fit. Fever of 104. I usually tough it out, but I went to an Express Care and begged for an inhaler.
Probably not Corona, but it scared the heck out of me.

"Given that it exponentiated by 10 fold increases week after week after that, we could not have missed the introduction of widespread cases by more than a week.," Thank you for pointing out what should be obvious to the MSM and the rest of the Trump haters. All these stories are being generated to allow the Trump Failed to Act Narrative to grow exponentially.

You assume that the virus acts the same in all infected. The “healthy” are the first wave - they are the ones traveling, etc. Their families and friends - often also young and healthy - are the second wave. The third wave infects the old and infirm.
You point to a correlation, but not a causation. Convince me,. if you can, you are correct.
