Be sure. The US national security establishment absolutely considers China to be an adversary. Look for terms like "pacing threat" when they discuss military acquisition programs.

This is an existential issue. Health has nothing to do with it.

I think any country that does not agree that the US should rule the world and is able to challenge it is considered an adversary.
