"as far back as august"...lol.
Try May-- at least. There were reports of a "new flu" virus popping up in random areas of China, but not too worry... it wasn't person-to-person transmissible. In July, they issued a warning over most of Asia to not eat raw meat because that was where the virus was thought to be coming from. In August, the first foreigner came out and spoke about his experience with this "new flu". That's the first news of it that leaked out of China. I've lived here for 10 years... these mf's are good at keeping shit behind the wall.
