Nearly everything broadcast to the masses is a "psyop" in some form. This is because influencing our thoughts and emotions is the only way to enforce servitude to outdated systems. Luckily, each person has the ability to dissociate and alchemize these messages into positive ones.
In the case of covid or social unrest, it's not to say these things don't exist or are outright lies. More so that the "controllers" want to influence the energy, frequency, and vibration behind the messages. There is no use for storing negativity in the body. It becomes toxic.
In this way, sickness can spread first mentally through hyper negative broadcasts which, if continually participated in, will result in physical sickness in the body. One concrete example is the phrasing "I am sick" vs "I am healing" which do you choose?
