Are they looking for a new reason to justify the massive virus apparatus that was erected during covid? What will happen to all the people and infrastructure if we have no more viruses to battle? I am reminded of the post 9/11 anti-terror bloat. Every week we would hear a new reason to keep it going. Red alert, yellow, amber, orange, red again, etc etc etc. and endless loop of fear for months and years.
