A POST ON Instagram has claimed that Covid-19 has never been isolated or photographed because it does not exist.
The claim is made in a caption beside a photograph of documents from the group Anti-Corruption Ireland, which incorrectly concluded that Covid-19 does not exist following a response to a Freedom of Information request.
We previously debunked Anti-Corruption Ireland’s claim here.
The caption on the Instagram post states: “Rona [i.e. the coronavirus that causes Covid-19] has never been isolated or photographed. Because it doesn’t exist.”
