They are burning bodies. Covad-19 is real.

Been listening to the scanner and I’m shocked there is nothing in it yet. Apparently there is an outdoor fire way out near crosspointe/lorton but it didn’t sound that bad

And there's a brush fire in Shirlington but that seems a long ways off.

Quantico is conducting a controlled burn and the smoke is coming all the way up to Burke/Fairfax. Evidently, they do this annually. Found a 2019 article but nothing for this year.

I can smell it and the air is thick here in Burke Center. That must be one huge fire.

FXPD Confirmed that it’s a controlled burn from Quantico. I personally think it’s related to the Corona virus.

I hope it isn't some sort of chemical weapon gone bad.
