        It doesn’t help that big corporations promoted 100% hydrogenated Crisco as a healthy alternative to lard or the drug Thalidomide that caused horrible birth defects.
        People need to be informed but many are swamped with the task of making a living and constant social “guidance”.

          They wouldn’t attribute it to the virus but something like 5G radiation. And yes, it doesn’t make sense.
