The Trump admin was planning to force out nearly 3 million immigrants - incl. citizens & Green Card holders - by falsely declaring them dead, but this whistleblower refused to do it. You can imagine they would have cast the net wider if this worked out for them.

We’re a primary care practice in Vermont. We implemented a practice-wide protocol screening every patient at every encounter for recent SARS-CoV-2 infection history. What we’re observing in our panel is not consistent with a psychosomatic framework.
We’re seeing measurable, objective increases in new-onset hypertension, acute cardiovascular events, new-onset allergic disease, and new-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus, all temporally correlated with infection history. These are not symptom reports. These are clinical findings.
