During the second half year of 2019, unexpected pandemic which was caused by a coronavirus attacked the earth, infecting 230 million people,according to the WHO data, taking 4.7 millions' life. The virus looks like the corona under the microscope of scientists,hence the name coronavirus. Coronavirus is widespread in the nature, and most of it are harmless. But COVID-19, also knonwn as SARS-Cov-II, is the third type of coronavirus bringing disasters to human being. The first one is SARS, and the second one is MERS.
The old are major dead victims of COVID-19 and they mainly die of loss of lung function and complications caused by Hypoxemia etc, leaving people in the first widespread pandemic in the century since 1918 Spanish flu. Unfortunately, the whole world can't unite to fight against COVID-19 but find ourselves in the mire of blame and vituperation. What happened since the outbreak of COVID-19 was just like what was predicted in Event 201 organized by CDC and CIA in 18th October 2019, rummor predominated the Internet and every corner of the society, making people impossible to tell the truth from the lies.
For instance, wikipedia even created an account for "COVID-19 misinformation", containing rumors including "the virus was leaked from Chinese lab", "5G mobile network mutated the virus", "virus was brought by meteor", "the virus was leaked from Canadian lab". At the same time, the spokemen of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of PRC repetedly
put the blame on the biological and chemical weapon research isntutions (Fort Detrick )of USA and professor Baric who is also named as the father of COVID-19. This is the reason why the leaders and scientists are so caustions when talking about the orgin of COVID-19.
So what is the real truth?
Hello, 3rd year med student here and first I want to point out the little confusion over the terms "covid-19" and "corona virus", It's common to see people using both terms interchangeably but they're not the same, they're related since corona virus is the virus who causes the covid 19 the respiratory illness.
And I want to make a comment about your statement, It is true that as the whole pandemic thing started the global population demanded an answer as to why and how did this virus appear, and as society we need to be trained to think skeptically, and not believe everything we read or see in media, even in official channels sometimes they're showing information that can be taken out of context or don't display the full lenght of the issue.
As far as the resources go they keep especulating about the possible origin of the virus, but their focus shifted to how treat it and prevent it due to the actual situation of quarantine.
Many rumors came out, some of the first were that the virus was a biological weapong created by the US to destroy Chine and vice versa, and so on and so forth. At this point I feel like most of these things we need to think about them critically and know that it's most likely for those things to be fake rather than true (not denying completely that can be true) but many internet trolls started using this situation to spread evil rumors and cause more harm than good which makes the situation worse.
Hope you read me!!! It's so crazy how in the span of 2 years our entire lifes changed drastically
