Kremlin-backed media has accused the UK of creating coronavirus for personal gain.[2] The fact that the rise of coronavirus coincided with the UK leaving the EU is not a coincidence.[3]

Counter arguments

"Scientists from multiple countries have published and analysed genomes of the causative agent, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2),1 and they overwhelmingly conclude that this coronavirus originated in wildlife as have so many other emerging pathogens."[4]
