    After facing backlash over the remarks, Kennedy claimed on Twitter that the New York Post story was “mistaken” and that he “never, ever suggested that the COVID-19 virus was targeted to spare Jews.”

    “I do not believe and never implied that the ethnic effect was deliberately engineered,” Kennedy added.

    There is no ethnic effect, you ninny. The original reporting had you right. You do believe the virus was engineered and you do believe it targets some races more than others. That is why you suck.
