No, the deaths and hospitalizations would have probably been thought of as just being pneumonia at the time.
There's nothing 'scammy' about the existence of the virus, nor of its effects.
'
just the reaction. that part is super 'scammy'. Unless you are into killing small business in favor of big box stores.
I think that you are only considering the situation USA.
COVID-19 is a world-wide problem and one that other countries are handling without all the (proposed) business failures.
I'm not sure how it would affect small businesses differently than it would large businesses? Perhaps large chain stores can afford to employ more fodder if frontline staff pass away?
totally. Most other countries have robust small businesses with millions in their cash reserves. it's just the USA where they skimp by until they make it. You really do embrace the derp don't you.

Wasn't there a "weird respiratory illness" in Colorado which was never identified long before the official start of the Great Reset Triggeritis known as COVID-19?
And then the thing they were pinning on vaping not long after that?
ETA: eh, maybe that was unrelated l inky

Don't think enough people caught his comment, and it might be the single most idiotic statement made about COVID and it's effects EVER here on ATS.

All of those mutations were straight line mutations, adding three HIV markers to a virus is not straight line. Crossing way over to attach the SARS to the covid the way it happened, is ten thousand mutations plus away from the way it mutated in iceland. These mutations contained in the virus occurred way too fast to be natural without humans intervening. A person with HIV would have had to have the virus, then it would have to go into another animal, then back into the human, then back into a bat or something complicated like that to naturally occur. One HIV marker, I can see that being normal, but not three.
I studied this kind of stuff a lot and I read scientific research, not just conclusions. When someone mentioned this HIV connection, I actually found research articles stating the process and the article was written by people working in a lab actually doing it. They used all sorts of animals to make the virus by infecting them in sequence. There is a name for that process of research but I do not remember it. I do not read BS, I read legit articles, and know from reading over two hundred research articles that deception in translating them to summaries causes the conclusions not to match the actual research pretty often. To secure more funding the conclusions are often overplayed, true science is kind of boring to most people, it excites me....I am not normal though, I love to check out the parameters of the research and the listed conclusions as to how to apply it in the research. I see often that the research does not match the conclusions written by whomever is writing the article after peer review.
I also have read so many articles, I try to figure out why research from one place contradicts research done by a different place. Scientists cannot agree on things half the time, that is why I am at odds with our governor that says she used science to lock us down, handpicked science that fits her beliefs. She has the states money to hire people who believe as she does and to identify research that fits her narrative.

I saw the evidence supplied by people who work in that field for a living, in labs dealing with that stuff, using the labs super computers to track that kind of stuff. They found HIV markers on this virus, meaning it had horizontal transfer with HIV infected humans as the host. I verified some of the evidence put out by the prestigious professionals with searches, but do not have enough access to specific research or knowledge to substantiate all of the evidence the professionals had presented. I am not going to pay big money to get access to research articles when I have hundreds of thousands of them to access free. Some of the best research is not public domain though, I cannot get access to private research articles sometimes. I have accounts at about six journals, all free accounts. I read research every day, The article I read had the actual numbers of the HIV markers and the position on the sequence. I have done quite a bit of research on genetics, that part of the article was easy to verify. and it was not Genetic modification, it was through horizontal transfer.
