They "were aimed that the general public," is true, but they were designed to give so-called journalists a "news" peg to hang headlines on, which amplified entirely manipulated data. Same trick used to shit can HCL plus z-pack. Two studies in which end-stage covid patients are given near toxic doses of HCL and all of them die, are trotted out so media can amplify the narrative, and then the studies are retracted two weeks later, thus denying people access to meds. Crime against humanity.
