truphemism 

A literal statement that could be interpreted as a euphemism due common usage as such.
Mrs. Jones mowed the lawn while Mr. Jones choked the chicken. The phrases "mow the lawn" and "choke the chicken" could be considered euphemisms for other activities, if in fact, Mrs. Jones was not cutting grass in the yard and Mr. Jones was not assaulting the said animal, thereby making it a truphemism.

virus trutherism 

A medical conspiracy theory that Covid-19 pandemic deaths are greatly exaggerated and may not be reported accurately. Some may minimize the loss of life of the old and sick who had little life left to live . The same people may also note that it only a few percent are vulnerable and that it disproportionately impacts minorities.
While the concept of virus trutherism is held together by a minimal amount of evidence, the idea is held by a vocal group with a high amount of fire power.
