        My conspiracy loving friend said this coronavirus has hiv protein or something like that. He think it's a proof of this being a bio weapon. Is this the first one he got right🤯?

        A so called journalist does not even comprehend the stress this coronavirus is putting on health systems. The impact is far greater than just 2% mortality.

        The cost of work and school absenteeism, business losses, and strain on the medical system will be astronomical even if the mortality rate turns out to be much lower. “Safer than SARS” is still not reassuring.

        “Infections help your immune system develop.” Develop what? “The ability to fight infections.” So infections are bad? “No. Infections help your immune system develop.” But if infections are good for you, why have an immune system to fight them? “How much is BIG PHARM paying you?”
