My point is that he is no fool.
The COVID-19 pandemic is a fake—death counts are inflated by false positives and mislabeled causes to justify control.

Calling out COVID-19
Writing this post years later, I can't remember clearly, but from what I can recall, Sucharit was one of the first 'mainstream' scientists to call BS on the whole thing, declaring it a 'fake' crisis.

He argued that measures like face masks and quarantines were nonsense, and he noted the grave dangers of the jab, which he said causes severe harm and could lead to many deaths.
He was right in many ways.

Sucharit believed that 'Covid' was no more threatening than the flu, and rendered the jab completely unnecessary.
In fact, he added that the injection increased risks like blood clots and autoimmune reactions.
'mRNA jabs could alter human DNA'
He also raised the possibility that mRNA jabs could alter human DNA.
Fear was weaponized—governments used COVID to erode freedoms, not protect public health.

I’ve been a member of the Mavericks Project for years, a global network founded by guys I know, buffering against central control. They don't accept all applications because they focus on quality, not quantity.
