A September 2019 war game by the U.S. Naval War College produced 16 findings that shed important light on how President Donald Trump’s administration and other officials are responding to the CCP virus crisis.
Called “Urban Outbreak 2019,” the war game convened 50 experts, each with at least 10 years of humanitarian response experience, for two days to respond to a lethal disease outbreak in a city of 21 million people, according to a summary published April 1 by the institution, which is based in Newport, Rhode Island.
