The story might be made-up to spread fear. Or, maybe 3 people took off.
Imagine a massive police search for 3 people who escaped a concentration camp, who were there because they did not take a drug injection for a virus that does not exist.
Imagine the fear porn ramping up that these 3 might be "on the loose" in public, with a non-existent health condition, never mind that they are perfectly healthy and showing no signs otherwise.
Idiocracy has arrived.
And ... maybe the TV box is just pushing a fake story about the escape, too.
There is no limit to the lies when people refuse to seek truth.
Will be used as an excuse to install mostly peaceful barbed wire.
