Description
"The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted lives the world over for more than a year. Its death toll will soon reach three million people. Yet the origin of pandemic remains uncertain: the political agendas of governments and scientists have generated thick clouds of obfuscation, which the mainstream press seems helpless to dispel. In this book, Wade sorts through the available scientific facts, which hold many clues as to what happened and provides readers with the evidence to make their own show more judgments"-- show lessTags
