I think the "scary" part here is that this can all be done every year, and even year round.
Doesnt actually require a new virus or anything, just the right people in the right places and the right marketing.
It would setup a nightmarish level of dependency and control, and not just for the medical establishment and pharmaceutical companies.
Literally all public health issues could be blamed on whatever the Virus du Jour happens to be, leaving industries and governments able to eschew safety and regulations entirely.
Something like the lead situation in Flint, MI could just be added to the symptoms list. Wouldn't even have to "get rid" of the regulations themselves.. Just blame it on The Virus of the Week.
