Of particular interest on the list of current officers is CGB Jamison Fouss, who, in March, 2018, visited the Wuhan Institute of Virology. That particular lab was tagged by conspiracy theorists as the origin of the deadly coronavirus strain.
The U.S. Counselor visited Wuhan Institute of Virology, CAS----Wuhan Institute of Virology
Wuhan Institute of Virology mission targeting for population health, agriculture and sustainable development strategies and public safety needs of the country, relying on high-level biosafety laboratory cluster platform, focusing on virology, Agricultural and Environmental Microbiology and emerging biotechnology basic and applied basic research and other aspects.
"On March 27th, Mr. Rick Switzer, Counselor of Environment, Science, Technology and Health Section of Embassy of the United States in China, accompanied by the U.S. Consul General in Wuhan, Mr. Jamison Fouss, visited Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV), Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS). Prof. Yanyi WANG, the Deputy Director General of the WIV, met with the U.S. delegation. Prof. Zhengli SHI, Director of Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases and Deputy Director of Wuhan P4 Laboratory, and Prof. Zhihong HU, Director of Center for Bacteria and Virus Resources and Application, participated the meeting."

The Virology lab website also has a series of press releases of other state official visits from France and Japan. Photos show the visitors in regular street clothes. If the lab was involved with experimentation of the deadly strain and contamination, it would explain possible "Patient Zero" effect.

It is unclear just who was evacuated at the original alert but consulate staff above most likely. Their backgrounds need be examined for any connection to US Army bioweapons history.
