The Falsehoods of the ‘Plandemic’ Video
The first installment of a documentary called “Plandemic” stormed through social media this week, promising viewers on its
website that the film will “expose the scientific and political elite who run the scam that is our global health system.” The video appeared across platforms, with
individual uploads each garnering hundreds of thousands of views.
But the viral video, running nearly 26 minutes, weaves a grand conspiracy theory by using a host of false and misleading claims about the novel coronavirus pandemic and its origins, vaccines, treatments for COVID-19, and more.
The video is largely an interview with
Judy Mikovits, a former chronic fatigue researcher who has
lobbed a number of accusations against National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases Director
Dr. Anthony Fauci. Mikovits was an author on a controversial
2009 study linking a retrovirus to chronic fatigue syndrome that was published in the journal
Science, and then
retracted in late 2011 after labs were unable to replicate the results and other issues were brought to light.
