China has told some real whoppers in the past 200 years.  This chinese virus story they made up is the worst so far in the 2000's.  But we still have 8 decades to go.

Few people died of an actual "virus".  Most of them died from pure ignorance (masking themselves 24 hours a day is killing more people than any virus ever could).

This was about money and power, it had nothing to do with our health.

Far too many people just do NOT understand this.  But they'll learn or die trying (of old age).
