As a casual observer this seems really relevant, clearly something that could be important down the road as we learn more. It might not be COVID-19, but it’s the kind of transparency I expect out of government.

If they were hospitalized with symptoms consistent with COVID - is very relevant, I agree.

But that’s not what this story is about. It’s just about being hospitalized, which means nothing, without any additional data. It’s like running a story that Obama visited Kenya, when birth conspiracy was rampant. It’s something you’d expect from CNN/Foxnews, but not from a reputable journalist organization.

It's quoting an American Intelligence Report, which doesn't necessarily make it more credible, but definitely makes it more newsworthy.
