    It is perhaps awarding too much credit to the organizers of a scam that would have this kind of impact on 59 million+ people.

    That said, Jeff Bezos will be $70 billion richer, while most of his employees are struggling to pay rent and deal with their own illnesses (20,000 estimated COVID cases at Amazon). Whatever the cause of COVID19, Amazon and Alibaba are among the main beneficiaries, as are the 1%, whereas the 99% are fighting over scientific facts. Yes, there is definitely a conspiracy to produce the latter discontent, run by a corrupt few who manipulate much of the news media and social media.
