I definitely don't support the conspiracy theory, but in these pandemic times that can cause both illness and confusion, we need our intuition. With so many different ideas about the covid-19 virus, it is necessary to be able to fly above all theories to develop a solid opinion.

Intuition is the ability to acquire knowledge  without recourse to conscious reasoning. Different fields use the word 'intuition' in very different ways, including but not limited to: direct access to unconscious knowledge; unconscious cognition; inner sensing; inner insight to unconscious pattern-recognition; and the ability to understand something instinctively, without any need for conscious reasoning.

The word intuition comes from the Latin verb intueri translated as 'consider' or from the late middle English word intuit, 'to contemplate'.
