That's where "content is king" and search engine basics come to rescue. If search engine does its job well, high quality content will always turn up before low quality ones.

Even assuming a gestation period of 28 days, the virus had all the free run to do its thing from January to March 20th in India, so why it didn't? That's a mystery. If most people were asymptomatic back then, then why did the virus specifically choose the time of March end to start showing symptoms in its hosts across the world (not just in India)?
