    These fake PCR tests will cost us our GDP which is already down. All governments are involved because they have no option. If they don’t agree with the international pharma mafia and world bank they will be assassinated just like many presidents of countries who refused to allow masks and vaccines.

    Setting a target of 12000 now defunct RTPCR tests and only this number, oh its very low. Number of positives doesn't prove they have any infections and asymptomatic never carry any viruses including still to be seen or found corona. Time to end this dramas. Now battery of international lawyers are setting up litigations all over the world to try the criminals who are perpetrating this crime against humans and toeing the line of vaccine industries.
