At this point I'm more willing to believe that the Wuhan lab leak theory was just projection and interference for a US lab leak. Especially given how it was initially played off as Trump making something up but all of a sudden turned into the story all the msm was peddling.
I find the idea that the US might've tried to intentionally start a pandemic in China to try and hobble it to be completely plausible. This wouldn't even make the top 10 list of crazy things the CIA has done over the years.
i remember seeing something like that but about the vaccines, like the cia used fake accounts to make the vaccines from china sound like they're made from the devil's piss to kill us all because "they made the virus, they made the cure"
i don't fucking remember where that info came from though. and i misread everything, jeez i need quality sleep
You're right. The US ran a misinformation campaign in the Philippines trying to make people distrust the Sinovac vaccine. It's not the first time they've weaponized public health campaigns or vaccines either.
