Many things are pointing that the virus itself has not been completed for the use. Originally they were planning to use it around 2024, and it was the tool to make the mass to accept the vaccination, which in turn was disguised clinical trials of their technologies thru CRISPR. The technologies that would be able to greatly enhance their longevity, mood, and cognitive abilities.

However,

in 2019 they really had to do something. They couldn't tolerate any more deviations from their intended courses of ... geopolitics. (I'll skip talking about this point since it's going get tediously longer.)

And they realized you don't need a pandemic. You'd only need a pandemic fear in order for the mass to accept the vaccination.

I once saw a post here saying, I am paraphrasing, "Virus is a hoax but vaccine is not." The sentiment is I would say 75% right.

Edited to Add :

I guess this was bound to happen: They found that no matter how hard they push people down, they couldn't generate enough of the mass acceptance for the vaccination. And they are also expecting heavy resistance against vaccine passport programs. So, they're looking into new opportunities of building this vaccination into more of your norms.

It's amusing in some way.
