Y no cui bono?
Cui bono the panic over New Ronco Flu-O-Matic?
A reminder: Regular generic unbranded flu kills about 30K Americans every year, which is about 100 deaths per DAY. So far the New Ronco Flu-O-Matic has killed something like 21 Americans, which is about 5 hours of the generic house-brand. Most of those were in one nursing home in Kirkland. They're not widely distributed.
The TOTAL hasn't even reached half a day yet.
Somebody is making money from this panic.
Obviously and tautologously the "health" agencies always benefit from a panic. Good old Parkinson. Panic means more budget and more power. In this specific case, panic means LESS IMMUNITY, which directly means MORE DEATHS.
How about commercial interests? Costco? Purell? Kimberly Clark? Or the "short" stock demons? A hedge fund trying to LBO the cruise lines?
Stirring up chaos has always been Soros's specialty. That's how he collapsed Russia and Malaysia and a dozen other countries to increase his hyperdemonic wealth. But Soros isn't the only short demon. The "Tesla skeptics", some of whom appear to be paid agents, have been working ferociously hard for New Ronco Flu-O-Matic.
Typhoid Rod at TAC, who is
openly paid by Soros, is another champion performer.
Of course the best part of a panic is that it halts ALL questions with the universal HOW DARE YOU!
