Corona-virus will never be cured as long as authoritarians can use it to control the population

Oh come on. Quarantines and other measure of containing the spread of disease have been used for centuries for everything from Bubonic Plague to Smallpox.

Smallpox has been eradicated and Plague is now curable with a simple dose of antibiotics.

It is not authoritarian to implement disease control during a pandemic.

Pelosi recently said the reason they finally agreed to push the stimulus bill through was because Joe is now going to be Prez.

No shutdown's and lockdown's for Hong Kong flu back in the late 1960's. They held Woodstock in America instead.
