As a former political consultant, all I need to do is google "images" for Christian Drosten, proponent of the debunked COVID PCR test, to know from the very camera angles that a huge, expensive PR campaign has been funded to promote his credibility. https://www.google.com/search?q=christian+drosten&source=lnms&tbm=isch&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwjhyInTr67uAhUjiOAKHQRrA3sQ_AUoAnoECAoQBA&biw=1279&bih=645
2/ The image taken up from below with photographer kneeling and a"halo" effect behind the subject: very expensive PR campaign. https://insidestory.org.au/knowns-and-unknowns/

6/ This photographer is literally kneeling on the floor in front of Christian Drosten to make him look heroic. Photographers get instructions from photo editors which come from editors, about how to represent a subject.
8/ Neil Ferguson in the UK gets the exact same visual treatment: dappled sunlight and a low, even kneeling, camera angle, to suggest his heroism: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2020/may/09/uk-scientists-letter-scientific-basis-for-lockdown-neil-ferguson
9/ Here's Imperial College London's PR effort from last March, using the same imagery and photo shoot (meaning they gave the Guardian photo from the shoot and the rights to use it). Wow, Ferguson predicting all would be in decline in two to three weeks. https://www.imperial.ac.uk/news/196477/j-ideas-neil-ferguson-tells-mps-lockdown/
