An episode on Viruses RIGHT BEFORE COVID

Doesn't anyone else think it is odd that Ancient Aliens would do TWO shows specifically about viruses right before the Covid outbreak when nobody yet knew about Covid???? How did these guys know? I mean they are all about conspiracies and secret information. Is it possible these guys knew about the pandemic before anyone else????? I did not see it until years later, and quite honestly I am really surprised that nobody else has remarked on the strange "coincidence" that this show talked about viruses changing our DNA right before a whole global phenomenon including the use of new mrna vaccines that we have never used before. Surely I cannot be the only person who has noticed this! It will be interesting to see whether or not this post gets mysteriously removed.

Some Interesting New Ground Here

This is an interesting episode. I'm not entirely convinced of the ancient aliens component to it, but it is interesting and well developed. I liked the on-site investigation with Georgio in the Ice Cave. The ancient aliens link is that aliens are influencing human evolution by sending viruses to Earth from space. This feels like it is very complex and unpredictable strategy. Still, this episode is a lot better than the last few in this season.
