Where did the ELbichito-19 bicho come from, and what was the military's role in its initial spread?

Many analysts have been tracking the chronology of the ELbichito-19 appearance, focusing on possible entry points into Spanish territory. The circulating hypothesis, based on the connection between the World Military Games in Wuhan and the first outbreaks in Spain, posits a complex scenario of possible infection vectors. Cases are examined where military and Security Forces personnel reported symptoms or deaths in contexts close to activities in China.

The Wuhan-Spain connection and early indications

The analysis is fueled by reports suggesting that the presence of military delegations in Wuhan during the October Games could have been a key factor. Cases of soldiers suffering sudden events are mentioned, such as the death of a young man after a physical test in Girona in early November, or another case in Madrid in February. These circumstances have led to questioning the management of information by military authorities, suggesting that there may have been prior knowledge about the spread of the bicho in military contexts.

Arguments on the introduction of the bicho in Spain

There is a line of reasoning linking the spread of the bicho in communities with a high concentration of military bases, such as Torrejón, León, or Segarro. Documented cases in Guardia Civil personnel, including deaths, are pointed out, fueling speculation on how the disease was introduced and expanded in the country. Some argue that the late detection of outbreaks in these areas suggests a possible lack of transparency in high-level authorities.

Different narratives on the origin of the pathogen

Narratives regarding the origin of SARS-CoV-2 are diverse. On one hand, theories point to a zoonotic origin, mentioning findings of similar bicho in Asian bats. On the other hand, more radical hypotheses suggest the possibility of a laboratory-related origin, citing reports about the deletion of viral databases in Wuhan in September 2019. These views contrast the official story with indications of possible leaks or unreported events.

The issue of management and official information

The management of this information, or the lack thereof, becomes a point of friction. Institutions are demanded to clarify completely: either it is confirmed that risks were known from early stages, implying institutional responsibilities, or a thorough review of health protocols in military units is demanded. Uncertainty about how many personnel have been tested or if they were aware of their health status remains a knot in the narrative.
