I'm always kinda surprised we haven't seen great incidences of cancer in presidents, considering how much time they spend at cruising altitude. Then again that may be part of why they seem to age at twice the normal rate in office.
Caving on /r/jailbait was the top of the slippery slope that got Reddit into the hellscape it is today. Hold your ground against performative outrage mobs, moral panics and media sharks, or you belong to them forever.
The most charitable I can be is thinking about how one can "know" without having anything to actually present to authorities, because a good professional criminal is good at ensuring it.

Get them going with 6-foot markers on the ground. The media will be able to make it look smaller than ever by zooming in, and by zooming out it'll look bigger than ever to us. Everybody wins!
Hard to imagine China coming out on top of this. They rely on the international trade that's pulling away from them. They have citizens intentionally spreading the virus as an act of rebellion, trying to stress the system to hurt the Communist Party.
