A Macro-threat like Global Warming was not scaring people enough. Time to switch to a Micro-threat like a pandemic.

Now can you see how easily the media controls you?

However, when 1,000's of scientists that study a subject all agree - with very few exceptions - that this is real, why doubt it so much?

You say they do not have sufficient knowledge, but where do you get the idea that you have enough to doubt any form of scientific consensus? Of course it isnt democratic, do you grab a group of peers to see if the pen you throw off the table will drop to the floor? No, you try hard.
You have no reason to doubt anything scientific except an apparently overwhelming urge to defy as much of anything that you can.
