In reality, there was a global pandemic that was extremely dicey for a while. If you don't know anyone that died, was hospitalised, or suffers long covid, you're extremely fortunate, but I'd wager that most of us do.

James Melville, for instance, was upset during that time because his 80yr old dad couldn't mingle with people or visit him. I strongly disagree that covid was propaganda.

I wouldn't say Covid itself was propaganda (the disease is very much real imo) in fact I wouldn't be surprised if it turned out to be slightly worse than the Media and the Government have claimed.

I will controversially say that I believe that the Media and the leaders around the world have lied about how effective the Vaccines have been, I think that the Economy worldwide was dying at the time, and they needed people out and about spending money and working to keep certain industries afloat.

I am going to guess that the Vaccines don't really do anything for people (good or bad) I just think that the world leaders needed an excuse to make money again, because they couldn't have people sitting on their butts all day.

And I know that I'm sounding like an anti-vaxxer (I know in myself that I'm not) but I understand if people think that I am.
