Claim is false. “Catastrophic Contagion” was not a prediction or announcement of when the next pandemic will occur. The goal of the fictional exercise was to highlight gaps in pandemic preparedness. Event 201 goes back over 20 years to highlight the same pandemic preparedness. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2023/01/13/fact-check-catastrophic-contagion-tested-pandemic-preparedness-not-prediction/11041367002/

Tweet embedding is no longer reliably available, due to the platform's instability (in terms of both technology and policy). If the Tweet still exists, you can view it here: https://twitter.com/foo_bar/status/1732959767218291156
Please note, though, that you may need to have your own Twitter account to access that page. I am currently exploring options for archiving Tweet data in a post-API context.
