Conspiracy Theories: COVID-19 Edition

At first blush, I don't see why getting people "some form of working identity" would be the top global priority for Gates (or anyone). What am I missing? Why is that particularly important?

I also don't see what it has to do with the Trump Flu pandemic or conspiracy theories.

Rocky,
I think it was this one from the NY Times.  Cases spiked yesterday. 
I found another one from the Moscow Times with a cases graph in my search.


Not Just a Crisis: Coronavirus Is a Test for Putin’s Security State
The outbreak offers an opportunity to examine the capabilities of Russia’s expanding surveillance apparatus, and gives Vladimir Putin a chance to prove his indispensability.

I see these links and raise you this one:

Why is Russia reporting so few COVID-19 cases?  Some say it's a cover-up
As the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread around the world, there are growing questions in Russia about the official number of cases that have been declared.

According to the count released by its health ministry, Russia currently has only 253 confirmed cases of the virus. That is vastly lower than in other major countries in Western Europe, where there are already thousands of cases.

Not conspiracy cause its China, but Ive heard a number of plausible scenarios about China's role in it.

A) This came from a bio-weapons lab.

B) China withheld a lot of information, not the deaths or infections like people have said, but the disease's affects, the severity, other impacts...and further BLASTED their aggressive actions to world media knowing this will create hysteria and help cripple the world, firmly strengthening their position on the world stage.

It could have also come from a regular ol research lab.

Maybe it got out accidentally (rather than nefariously).

https://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2019/3/20/18260669/deadly-pathogens-escape-lab-smallpox-bird-flu

Maybe it leaked out somehow, and China did a facepalm and said "welp, we can't let the world know about this, otherwise they'll think we're not ready to be a global player."

One of the things that was pointed out in this interview with one of the foremost doctors who has studied the coronavirus said that the nasal passages and the nasal membranes are the coolest part of the body. That’s why the virus tends to go there until it then becomes healthy enough to go into the lungs.

“This sound really goofy, and it did to me too, but it works,” he explained. “Once the temperature reaches 136 degrees Fahrenheit, the virus falls apart, it disintegrates.

“I said how would you get the temperature up to 136 degrees? The answer was you use a blow dryer. You hold a blow dryer up to your face and you inhale through your nose and it kills all the viruses in your nose.

"At the March 20 meeting of the Okeechobee County Commissioners, Commissioner Bryant Culpepper referenced a program he said he saw on One American News Network about the coronavirus."

From the same folks who gave airtime to "Fauci created the virus".

Hah, that article actually made me think that it was more likely that this came out of a lab.

There are a number of ways to mimic natural evolution in the lab. There is a whole field called "directed evolution" that harnesses and accelerates natural evolution to screen for desired traits.

That isn't a reason for why this wasn't engineered. The conspiracy theorists in me says, but...scientists know about directed evolution, so if scientists are adamant that such a thing does not exist, it must mean they are covering something up.

I was thinking that yesterday how they caught a break.  Every day the MLB season is delayed is one less day they'll be heckled.

Actually, the Trump and the Russians started it to get Trump re-elected.
