Deception:
The Great COVID Cover-Up

By Rand Paul

I’ve probably read (or scanned) two dozen books on COVID in the past four years. This was one of them.

I read it because I was always impressed by how early and how tenaciously Rand Paul took on the mainstream narrative on COVID. I was also impressed, and at times uncomfortable, by how early he decided that Anthony Fauci was an immoral fraud responsible for so much of the death, destruction, and loss that came from the COVID protocols and mandates.
