Idk, it seems suuuuper coincidental that this disease disproportionately affects the obese, which is much more prevalent in the west. That's why Asian countries aren't seeing death rates like we are.

It also doesn't kill children (like almost every other virus), which makes me think it was designed. AND it weirdly doesn't target smokers, which there is a higher amount of in Asia.

There are far too many coincidences for me to write off the theory that they designed it. Not saying it's true, but it smells fishy af.

 

I hope this is a joke, they probably lied about it in the begging. But girl... you went too far

Imo if they're creating a virus to gain power they'd create a more letal one 

Covid creates more trouble than gains smh 

Well, just to totally play devil's advocate here, it would make more sense to create a semi-lethal one like covid.

Like when Basil blinded the Bulgarian army rather than killing them so their people would be burdened with taking care of them. Keeping hospitals full, straining resources, sewing political chaos, it's more effective than a virtual viral carpet bombing of the planet.

That said, we have no reason to think covid was created.

Um...obesity itself can lead to multiple health issues like heart disease, diabetes, hypertension, coronary artery disease, respiratory disease, and a myriad of other things. So of course any virus that also impacts any of those systems will be more severe in people who have both conditions. Covid damages the lungs mainly but also the heart, kidneys, and liver which are already stressed in obese people.

Covid isn't alone either. The annual flu, other coronaviruses, they all disproportionately impact obese people.

So like...this idea doesn't check out at all
