Irrespective of the merits or otherwise of The Daily Mail, all other mainstream media sources are repeating the selfsame nonsense.
It’s also worth mentioning that studies undertaken to measure the incubation period for this virus indicate 6-10 days for around 80% of those studied. The probability of everyone now reported as suffering from Covid having been infected at the debate on September 29 is vanishingly small, based on those data.
The media, of course, will not consider the error rate in the tests, or potentially manipulated results like those exposed in Tanzania. Personally, I think this outbreak stinks and might well be part of an influence operation.
