That it is being blown in by Russian warships in the English Channel.

The virus is getting blown in. Shock.......This is according to my neighbour who declared this after seeing news reports of 7 Russian warships in the area. I wouldn’t mind but this man is usually very rational.

My cat bought a baby pigeon in, it was dead. Maybe it just needed a new battery though.

Pigeons stay in the nest till fully fledged.

Is your neighbour called Rod by any chance?

Alternatively it is to implant us all with chips via the vaccine that we will all be given.

The first time I heard this, about 15 years ago, it was somehow mixed up with a mysterious planet that was about to come wandering past Earth. I think the Illuminati were involved too, somehow. Or it may have been some other shadowy Them. Anyway, They were going to control the world via this vaccine. The fact that we can't get enough people to take up the measles vaccine to give us herd immunity in parts of England seemed to be a weak point in this plan.

@ wateriswide

Best theory ever going with it!

Having just read how vials of Anthrax were stored in an unlocked building in Kazakhstan in a metal cupboard where anybody could easily have walked in and taken them nothing would surprise me about how this got out.

Isn't there a theory about China & 5G

On a local FB page a woman asked our MLA to assure her that it wasn’t a plot to have 5G installed in the schools while they were closed. Now I know why! Grin

I wondered about this at the time!

seriously the trolls are out talking about the secret laboratory & than they start talking about big pharma & if you burn herbs with silver it will clean your house - funnily enough if you check their background you find they practice alternative medicine in rather strange ways - & they get paid for it so its in their financial interest to do this

MrsSnitchnose · 26/03/2020 17:03

They're always blamed for everything, I knew someone would accuse them sooner or later

ThatLibraryMiss · 26/03/2020 17:11

@MrsSnitchnose, Them in particular or just Them, you know, They don't want you to know about Them?

MrsSnitchnose · 26/03/2020 17:12

Then as in the Russians, not the general Them Grin

Mitzdob · 26/03/2020 17:14

It was Greta - making us lockdown to save the world. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Daftest one I heard was it was the British govrnment trying to distract us from Brexit. Confused Yeah right! the whole world pandemic just to distract us from Brexit.

mumwon · 26/03/2020 18:21

Yup but - the Eu offered for us to join their medical order thingee which included respirators but our dear leader apparently said we weren't part of the EU which is why their is such a rush to make our own supplies from British companies who supported him in Brexit even though Dyson (yep) version will have to checked before using & wont be ready for a couple of weeks & the worst of this is that its true not a rumour etc

helpmeandmybrokenbum · 26/03/2020 18:31

My newsagent, otherwise a fairly rational man, thinks that the Russians have done it, to get the NHS on its knees so that Trump can buy it cheaply.

🤷🏻‍♀️

onlyjustme · 26/03/2020 18:39

@insertcaffeine I "rescued" a baby pigeon 2 years ago so they do exist!!! Fabulous theory though.

flossyflorenceflounces · 26/03/2020 18:42

We get baby pigeons in our garden every spring, it's just that they don't leave the nest until they are nearly fully grown. They still ask to be fed by their parents so you can spot them that way.

YoureAllGrounded · 26/03/2020 18:52

I've heard so much nonsense about this virus.

The best being that it's all a front to shield us from the mass arrests in Hollywood of people like Tom Hanks, Oprah and Ellen DeGeneres because they're all involved in some sort of child abuse.

I fell down a Twitter hashtag rabbit hole last night and found some of the maddest conspiracies I've ever seen. Honestly, some of it is twisted.

Aroundtheworldin80moves · 26/03/2020 18:52

Im rather suspicious of Joe Wickes. PE with Joe is a bit too much like the morning PT broadcast in '1984'...

YoureAllGrounded · 26/03/2020 18:55

Joe Wicks is an absolute dick as well. Have detested him since watching his 'wean in 15' and his acting like he's the only bloke to ever bring up a child.

Making a one year old who didn't want to eat their (vile imo) lunch wait until an 8pm dinner time is horrible.
Poor kid was crying because him and his wife were eating toast in front of her and he wouldn't allow her to have any.
It broke my heart.

applepineapple · 26/03/2020 18:55

@YoureAllGrounded is that the Adenosine theory? I'm obsessed with this - I keep going back in whether it's true or not! ConfusedGrin

YoureAllGrounded · 26/03/2020 18:56

@applepineapple That's the one! Honestly, I was reading it like this Shock.

@adiposegirl2 the coronavirus can cause the common cold... it ain’t a new thing... it’s this strain which is.

Sn0tnose · 26/03/2020 19:24

The best being that it's all a front to shield us from the mass arrests in Hollywood of people like Tom Hanks, Oprah and Ellen DeGeneres because they're all involved in some sort of child abuse I heard that one. Apparently Tom Hanks, Madonna and Celine Dion were all on the verge of being arrested!

Have also heard it’s a Disney conspiracy because the kingdom in Tangled is called Corona!
