I've been searching the topic for clues to the origin of patient zero. The best I can come up with is the first recorded infection in Foshan City, Guangdong, China, occurred on July 8th, 2025. Patient Zero was said to have brought the infection in from an outside source, but no other information is available in my initial searches.
Apparently it has been really bad in the Guangdong province for ages now. Infection rates have been historically much higher though out Guangdong and nearby provinces then what has been reported in Foshan City since the first outbreak in July. Certainly makes me wonder, "Why all of a sudden the pandemic panic?"
With the number of biological labs literally all over China, finding the origin of Patient Zero is the only way to try and narrow down the potential origins of this particular variety of chikungunya. Also, China has a number of programs aimed at controlling mosquito borne illnesses running in many labs, chikungunya being of particular concern even though it is not air borne or highly contagious with less than lethal symptoms.
The lack of specifics is to be expected considering how they scrubbed their records and had to deal with reports outside of China with information they didn't like during the COVID pandemic. They did everything they could to coverup the facts and try to change the obvious origin of the last pandemic coming out of China.
