Although the worst part of the pandemic is over, the negative effects of the COVID-19 in humanity they are incalculable. The deaths would have added more than 15 million, according to the UN, without counting the social and economic disaster that meant.
Vaccines, care and probably the natural assimilation of the immune system to the virus the number of deaths has decreased. However, the disease is still present.
We are still wondering about the origin of the virus. exist three main theories, two of them reasonable and handled by both science and the political authorities, and a third far-fetched.
Below are the three theories about the source of COVID-19.
COVID-19 originated in a market in Wuhan, China
It is the theory most accepted by the scientific community: the virus came from animal-to-human transmission in a market in Wuhan, China. The famous bat that started it all, eaten by some local person.
In a 2021 US Intelligence report, three clear lines were established: the virus was not developed as a biological weapon; it was not genetically modified and Chinese officials had “no foreknowledge” before the initial outbreak.
The trend in the great pandemics in history is that they arise from natural transmission through animals. In some cases, such as the Ebola virus, the original natural source was never known.
The source of COVID-19 is in a laboratory in China
Wuhan is once again the center of origin of COVID-19, but no longer a market, but a laboratory controlled by the Chinese government. This possibility was recently highlighted by FBI Director Christopher Wray.
According to the theory, the laboratory handled the SARS-CoV-2 virus, and due to some incident -deliberate or not- it was released, generating the pandemic.
“The FBI has assessed for quite some time that the origins of the pandemic are likely a possible laboratory incident in Wuhan,” Wray said, quoted by CNN.
“We are talking about a possible leak from a Chinese government controlled laboratory that killed millions of Americans. That is precisely what it was designed for.”
The big problem with this theory is that there are no proofs. China has not cooperated enough (in the words of the US authorities) in the matter, which prevents further knowledge about the possible source.
Contradictions to this theory go through other US officials. The Department of Energy considers this to be a low confidence assessment, “as the information obtained is not reliable enough or is too fragmented to make a more definitive analytical judgment.” in the words of CNN.
The 5G network caused the disease
It is the most illogical of all. The mistrust of the 5G network (fifth generation of mobile networks) inspired this theory. According to many people who believe in her, 5G radiation produces negative health effects, and that COVID-19 is the main one.
In South America and Europe They tore down and burned down 5G towers, alluding that technology was behind the disease. By April 2020, 50 fires were reported in Great Britain and 16 in the Netherlands. According to AP, they also attacked towers in Ireland, Cyprus and Belgium.
Communities on Facebook, Reddit and YouTube became highly effective channels to unleash the theory.
Susan Brinchman, director of the Center for Electrosmog Prevention, stated: “All 5G infrastructure must be dismantled and turned off.” His organization campaigns against “environmental electromagnetic pollution.”
