Was the covid19 disaster created to scupper trade plans?

[A.Jenery]

Just that.  It's almost like the covid19 disaster was brought about as a retaliation to US trade sanctions and to thwart post brexit plans for WTO rules imho!

One gets that impression, timing of it was certainly ironic.

It certainly effected global trade, at least for the near future.

Dunno, seems a bit elaborate.  There must be easier ways to scupper world trade that doesn't result in hundreds of thousands of casualties.

I would say, yes!  Although the timing of the pandemic was still a bit suspicious.

Agreed!  And a lot of other things that come to mind!

If GPs tell people they've got coronavirus they're going to accept it because they're the professionals and we're not.  Symptoms like dry caughing, sweating and such could be due to flu, hayfeaver and even a bad cold.
