    Can I ask a question?

    Do you believe that the entire world is in on the hoax? Every nation in the world got together some time in late 2019, and agreed to mess with .. well, everything - even though many of those nations hate each other, and all of them want strong economies?

    It's not really an agenda. This is fear and/or issues with adjustment and change.

    Luckily, the vaccine will provide closer to 90% herd immunity.

    I can answer that.
    Those countries joined fear mongering after USA Started it.
    Most of the countries are watching CNN and other fake news channels.

    Sigh. You know what it's like to get 10 friends to decide on where to go for dinner?

    I can't begin to imagine the mental gymnastics one has to go through to actually believe that all the world's leaders, all the world's healthcare workers, and all the world's experts on viruses, colluded to make this happen; fill up hospitals with fake patients, get hundreds of thousands of fake dead people... how many tens of thousands of people would have to be in on the secret to pull this off?

    It's probably the same many thousands of election workers who mocked up a million dummy ballots for Biden. ;)

    It's an incredible level of denial. Really bizarre.

    And just as in most whacky conspiracy theories, they can never give a reason for any of it. When you ask 'but what would be the purpose of the entire world uniting (as if such a thing was even remotely possible) to ruin economies? And how do you explain the fact that the virus is far worse in some countries than in others? Where's the 'united conspiracy'? When you have virtually COVID free places like New Zealand, Australia, Vietnam, Thailand, Taiwan, Greece etc.. all recovering economically, while Europe and America continue on their downward spiral - any suggestion of a plan is preposterous. Perhaps they think the Govts of Europe and America want Taiwan to run the world - or Vietnam, or New Zealand :p

    They just report differently.
    In US every positive is reported, even if it is false positive.

    They did not colluded, the virus is real. They just started reacting as a real threat once USA started fear mongering and reporting fake COVID-19 deaths.
    I.e. deaths that caused by other reasons but associated with COVID-19.

    Right .. so the UNITED GOVTS OF THE WORLD decided - for some unknown reason, or no reason at all - that each country would report cases differently, giving powerless nations like Vietnam, Thailand, New Zealand, Greece, and Australia the edge. With those nations' wildly different politics, economies, and cultures?

    How do you even begin to pretend that any of that makes the slightest sense?

    You understand that this started in Asia, don't you? America is not the source of any of it. Neither the virus, nor the response to it.

    Asian nations responded much sooner and MUCH more strongly than America did. On this side of the world, America's response is regarded as too little too late. No one wants to emulate it, of that you can be sure.

    If your Govt won't implement martial law to get the job done, they're forced to rely on heavy 'marketing'. You need to take that up with your useless Govt. Might want to have a word with Europe, while you're at it.

    Those Asian nations are under China rules,
    China reports ZERO cases, so they do it as well.

    Europe, India is under CNN and other fake news channels, so they are doing what they are told.
    Not sure about Australia and NZ, I guess they are more independent.

    Europe and India are doing what they are told by CNN and other fake news channels?
    What's your source buddy? Is that near the so called evidence that Trump won the elections?

    Western media is monopolized by several news companies, so regardless of the name of the news source the fear mongering is spread out with the same intensity.

    Take a note how vaccine become available next Monday after Trump's defeat.
    The closer Biden get into presidency the more great news are coming from the media.

    LOL A company like Biontek is going to risk billions by delaying their announcement until after a foreign government votes on a leader.

    We do not live in a free market society.
    Government (or government substitutes) are making decisions.
