they brewed it up in a lab, then pretended it got loose, used a fraudulent PCR test with many false positives to conflate covid and flu, and "died of covid" and "died with covid", gave people mdidazolam, gave people remdesivir, stole all the regular flu and pneumonia deaths for covid via fake test or presumptive diagnosis, then once they had everyone good and scared they stuck the bioweapon in as many arms as they could.
so yeah, fake and real at the same time.
