I am 100% positive that it was intentionally leaked. If you analyze the news at the exact time covid began to start before it was known there was very wide spread lamentation by all the news networks about how strong the economy was. It seemed unstoppable at the time, and all the pundits were wringing there hands about how it would take a literal economic implosion to take out Trump…and it would take a miracle for that to happen. One month later, as if by magic, the entire economy was shut down for the first time in world history.
The scientific reasoning for this course of action can be explained by, “Orange Man Bad.”
It was obvously a coup ran by the DNC, Intelligence and China to get Trump out of office.
