You're pushing a conspiracy constructed in pursuit of a narrative.

No, the CDC did not knowingly assist in creating and spreading COVID to kill people across the globe. It caught everyone off guard and the world was woefully underprepared to handle such an event. A million Americans died and people still call the entire thing a hoax and demand blood from public officials like Fauci.

Maybe, just maybe, if people listened to the CDC and WHO we would have better outcomes. Maybe if we acted earlier, like was requested, we would have prevented it's spread. But I seem to recall a certain set of executive and legislative members doing everything they could to politicize and antagonize and encourage the use of ineffective dewormers.

And when we finally made a vaccine, those very people discouraged it's use to the extreme - conspiracies of microchips galore - and had public health officials getting death threats. But, no, it's the CDC's fault.

I won't even touch how utterly asinine the "just eat better and let everyone get the flu" comment is.

I don't play conspiracies, I distrust everything proven, this includes conspiracy theories with arguments made from air.

I haven't said that was intentional. I blame their errors and mistakes.

When? They changed their narrative almost 6 times, while killing people with the mechanical respirators or keeping them stuck in-home with no physical activity.

The world already faced this kind of acts during the Spanish Flu, and CDC repeated the exact same mistakes of that time, considering we have better technology and information by that time.

The Wuhan lab research and blame to Chinese people was a conspiracy during COVID, and today we know how CDC was involved into the gain-of-function Wuhan Institute of Virology. Why did they negated everything when questioned?

Do you understand many Chinese people faced discrimination because of this? And this was well known project funded by the NIH.

So a conspirationist? got it
