I should qualify this comment.
I watched that presser at the time.
Like much in modern life, the hive generates a narrative and the ignorant masses suck it up.
I won't bore the forum with a regale of the presser, it's on YT but enough to say that Trumps clumsy words were bastardised ever & on.
He proved to be correct in his comments as well. UV does nulify viruses and anti-viral medicines are a known development.
but the irony is that we have the gullible and conformitory left, intellectually mocking the sceptical and rebellious right for being, well, intelligent and inquisitive.
the same left which is quite happy to peddle a false narrative deliberately to denigrate the "others" stupidity in looking beyond the visages.
bonkers.
no wonder the gulf between the two is so wide when its really a battle between the religious zealots and the Atheist sceptics.
