The propaganda caused people not to wear masks or otherwise prevent transmission before a vaccine was available. In a world without this propaganda, more people would be alive today - both the idiots that believed it, but also the innocents whose deaths they caused.

that was a virus killing people, the propaganda just increased the rate of spread and had idiots taking ivermectin.
