SARS‑CoV‑2 (COVID-19) (@sarscov2covid19)
Just spoke with my CDC sources. They said RFK Jr. has instructed officials in California to hide tuberculosis cases after seven people tested positive. He’s doing the same with bird flu and other emerging infectious diseases. Before a virus spreads, concealment spreads first. I report on bird flu, COVID-19, tuberculosis, and other emerging threats straight from the frontline. I need your support. Please subscribe to my Substack, follow my page and help spread the truth.
