 Covid is just another coronavirus, it has never existed as a pandemic. 
 As you may knoe, the definition of pandemic had to be changed to make this happen.. with the new definition almost all transmittable disease is now a pandemic :/

 "Why does this Lysol say it kills corona virus?!"

 Let me take you one further: the evidence that viruses actually exist and cause disease is shockingly bad 😅 
 I agree. 

Personally I have come to a "compromise" view of germ theory, in which ordinary germ theory is clearly wrong (ie pathogens are not generally sufficient to cause disease in healthy hosts, as many experiments show including Koch's own cholera work)

but I am inclined to believe pathogen exposure can cause/increase problems in a host which has become diseased by other mechanisms (as shown by the h. pylori ulcer experiment, although it did lack a proper control)

But viruses in particular I regard with special skepticism due to the poor methods of "isolation" (or lack thereof) and other procedures within the field of virology 
 Yes virology is as pseudoscientific a medical enterprise as any in the history books. Shockingly silly upon inspection
