The world is beautiful and amazing, but even in it wars, natural disasters continue, fatal diseases rage, taking the lives of hundreds of thousands of people. The coronavirus pandemic that hit the planet at the end of 2019 has sparked a lot of debate about the nature of the origin of the deadly virus. Conspirology has long invaded the field of medicine and pharmacology and seems to have settled there for a long time. From the perspective of today, let's look into the recent past, and consider conspiracy theories about the origin of various diseases.
Here are 8 artificially created diseases in the opinion of many conspiracy therapists:
1
HIV AIDS
The question of the appearance of the human immunodeficiency virus is controversial. Some doctors believe that for the first time HIV was transmitted to humans from monkeys back in 1926. But only in 1981, the world community recognized that humanity was faced with a new deadly disease.
Years pass, and there is no effective medicine, which raises doubts about the natural origin of the disease. All efforts to talk about the nature of HIV do not bring results, and new conspiracy theories are born every year. In Africa, some state rulers generally denied the existence of this virus, resulting in the deaths of hundreds of thousands of people.
In the United States, many believe that AIDS was created by the government to combat black people. In Latin America, many are convinced that the United States invented the vaccine, but banned its mass release. But the most popular is the conspiracy of pharmacological companies that earn huge capital on AIDS patients. When infected, a person spends the rest of his life on expensive drugs, enriching pharmacological corporations.

Malaria
This is one of the oldest diseases of mankind. Modern laboratory experiments and archaeological research have proven that the first person infected with malaria lived 145 million years ago. Today, in terms of mortality, malaria is the fifth largest in the world.
Medicine during this time has stepped forward, and a cure for malaria has not been found. In 2019, an outbreak of malaria in Burundi brought back conspiracy theories that some governments use this virus to control population. The authorities of Burundi did not want to impose a state of emergency due to the upcoming presidential election, which led to the deaths of many residents of the country. It is sad when politicians sacrifice for their own benefit the people of their own country.
Now there are several options for vaccines against malaria, but even here opinions began to sound about the conspiracy. Many residents, where there is a danger of infection, refuse vaccination. They believe that the vaccine, if not killing, then leads to the development of autism and other developmental pathologies. In recent years, cases of the birth of children with Kanner syndrome have become more frequent in Africa, which only fuels conspiracy theories.

Dengue fever
The nature of deadly fever was recognized at the beginning of the twentieth century. The epidemic of 1779 is considered the most massive outbreak in history. From 10 to 20 thousand people die every year from a dangerous disease.
In 2019, fever struck areas of Africa, the Middle East, and reached some islands in the Atlantic. For a long time, doctors have been struggling with Dengue fever with the Wolbachia vaccine, which blocks the development of the virus in the body of mosquitoes. But around the vaccine, even among doctors, a lot of controversy erupted. Some believe that it, on the contrary, contributes to the spread of deadly fever. There are versions that Dengue is a product of genetic engineering, and with the help of the virus they want to control demographics among the poor layers of the planet's population.
Strings of conspiracy lead to Bill Gates. According to the majority of people in African countries, with the help of this vaccine, the richest man on the planet controls the population. Another theory is that the poor in African countries are becoming material for the experiences of leading pharmaceutical companies.

Nipah virus
Some species of winged birds are carriers of a viral infection, including the species of winged foxes. It is noteworthy that the disease itself was not recorded in the winged birds. Over time, the virus mutated and began to be transmitted from person to person.
Mortality from viral infection is low. For example, in 2018 in the Indian state of Kerala 17 people died who confirmed the virus. But this was enough to spread rumors related to the Nipah virus around the world. Two residents of India were arrested for saying that the virus does not exist, and it was invented by pharmacists to sell drugs. There is no cure for the virus, but it is treated with therapeutic drugs.
The second theory is related to the fact that several public organizations stated that bats are not carriers of the disease. When the symptoms of the virus do not need to see a doctor, just drink more water and change the diet.

H1N1

In everyday life, this flu strain is called “swine flu.” Its origin is not exactly known, but the outbreak of 2009 caused a panic in the world. According to WHO, the new strain resulted in the death of 500 thousand people in 140 countries.
The outbreak was overcome, but the virus each time returns as seasonal flu.
In an interview, American musician and entrepreneur Billy Corgan said that he acknowledges the real existence of the new virus, but believes that it was invented artificially. To the question “Why?” - the rock musician replied - "To scare humanity." Corgan criticized President Obama for imposing a state of emergency in the country and urged residents to refuse vaccination.
The second conspiracy theory, caused by H1N1, many people on the planet associated with a WHO scam. Public human rights organizations said that WHO had conspired with pharmaceutical companies to scare the inhabitants of the Earth with a pandemic and sell expensive drugs.

Zika virus

They discovered a new type of virus in 1947, and mosquitoes from the genus Aedes are carriers. Today, Zika virus has pandemic status, and the last major outbreak occurred in Brazil in 2015.
The fever is deadly, but still no medicine has been invented for it. The first conspiracy theory was associated with the omnipotent Rockefellers. Many people believed that this family specifically invented a new virus to plague humanity. Of course, this did not hold water, because it is hard to imagine that the Rockefellers chase mosquitoes and specifically infect them with a dangerous virus.
Nowadays, many blame another rich man, Bill Gates. It is believed that it was his financing of vaccine development that led to the emergence of a new virus. But according to the editors of most-beauty, this, of course, is not so. It’s hard for many people to realize this, but in the West, rich people are engaged in charity work, and it’s not easy “for show,” but from the heart. Those who cannot understand this are trying to find malice in this.
There is another version. Outbreaks are associated with chemicals used in mosquito control. Many are sure that under the influence of toxic substances mosquitoes mutate, becoming carriers of a deadly disease.
7
Ebola
Ebola virus causes fever, which in most cases ends in death for a person. They discovered a new dangerous virus in the early 1970s in Africa. The latest mass epidemic swept across African countries in 2013–2016.
The high mortality from Ebola has brought to life a number of conspiracy theories. This was also facilitated by the fact that mainly black inhabitants of the African continent were dying. Many said it was a biological weapon developed by US experts. The idea was supported by many world media, famous personalities, bloggers. They also said that Ebola is a means of controlling movement and establishing a strict military and police dictatorship.
For example, many independent American organizations said that Obama sent doctors to Africa because he felt guilty for the spread of the deadly virus among the African population. The second theory was no different from other similar ones. It’s the fault of the pharmacists who want to capitalize on the disaster and deaths of people.

COVID-19
A new virus that triggered a pandemic, every day overgrows with new conspiracy theories. There are even those who completely deny its existence. But hundreds of thousands of deaths prove the opposite, and the voices of the "daredevils" calmed down.
But in the media, among the townsfolk, politicians and even doctors, some theories continue to escalate. The following ideas are most popular. The first is a biological weapon developed by the USA against China. The second is that the virus was developed by Russia to fight the West. The third is that the virus was developed in laboratories in China to reduce the country's population. Along with biological weapons, there is a theory that COVID-19 acts as a means of establishing total control over humanity. Who wants to install? Of course, a world government.
The theory that the coronavirus is heavenly punishment for human sins is also spreading among the world's population. Environmentalists, on the other hand, shout that in this way nature dealt a retaliatory blow for a person’s consumer attitude to life, that long ago natural selection did not show itself on such a scale.
Summarize
Mankind has managed to cope with smallpox, plague, and cholera. Vitamins protect us from scurvy. But the process of evolution is ongoing, and the outbreak of a new virus is vivid confirmation of this. Viruses easily mutate, adapting to new living conditions. New ones come for conquered diseases, and the editors of most-beauty want to ask our readers what they think about conspiracy theories about the origin of the disease. We are waiting for your comments.
