COVID 19 is more like a Cold on steroids. Overall, yeah, they are beefing up Covid case numbers for political reasons. Also, most homemade masks don't work well, if at all.
Imagine throwing accusations like "they don't want it to end" when the accuser is part of the problem. Pot calling the kettle black, aren't we?
How am I part of the problem when the problem is the media having blown the flu out of proportion for the sake of political gain?
