No, of course not. It's far more likely that beings from another planet (that we are not yet aware of) traveled to earth (using a technology far advanced from what we have) and have studied us without having been detected. Since their technology is far more advanced than ours, they understand human biology better than we do. They are also able to determine the tiny details of the virus that is infecting us and are able to conceive of a formula for a treatment to reduce deaths.
Having traveled all that way, studied us in depth, analyzed the virus, and synthesized a treatment,
the best means they have to convey the information is by drawing a picture using a farmer's crops????? They understand our biology but not our language. They are desperate to help us but only if we are fortunate to find the crop circle and take the time to decipher it before the farmer plows it under. They are extremely advance, intelligent, and altruistic but the English language or paper and pen are beyond them.
Yep, far more likely than two old men with boards and ropes.
It is comforting to know that the pandemic will be over and life will be back to normal by December 2021 (at about the 22 minute mark).
