Sure, although those alleged 106,000 deaths are from all possible causes other than this cold virus.

Keep in mind, in any effort to interpret what’s going on behind the scenes of media propaganda, you have to reach an understanding of the metanarrative.

Here, the metanarrative is the deep state’s fear of losing power.
