#flex to the medical posers from the CNN University School of Medicine. You dopes.
"15 days to slow the spread" was a blatant lie. Some of us were suspicious on the front end, and now all of us have read the stories to confirm that it was a willful lie. As was "these restrictions are only in place to lower the curve and avoid overwhelming our hospitals." They thought it was a good idea to "ease" us all into their real plan: Start with 15 days, then keep restrictions enforced by using sensationalized data points as a justification as to why citizens can't have reasonable control over their freedom. It significantly impacted their goal, as well, because a great many people no longer trusted anything being handed down, and went so far to the other end of the spectrum of going about their lives to prove some silly point to themselves.
And the political weaponization of this: Unforgivable. Teachers Unions who used this as an opportunity to hold people hostage while they made demands unrelated to COVID. Politicians who kept constituents locked down while going about their own lives as they hypocritically lived how they wanted to. And of course, those who wanted to maximize the damage to the country in the name of having some talking point going into the elections.
Small businesses, kids' development and education, mental health, etc.: All acceptable collateral damage.

Falsehoods and distortion of facts was propagated by the same side and cult members who did the same re 2020 election fraud claims -- all total nonsense.
Fauci, CDC, and the global science community readily admit that some of their well intended guidance and forecasts were incorrect, not because they were lying, but because they learned (evolved) during the course of the pandemic that their best and experienced recommendations and guidance was not supported by the data that grew over the course of the pandemic.
Same thing happens with seasoned military generals in managing a battle plan. Effective leaders learn to modify and adjust their strategy and tactics over the course of the military campaign ...... based upon what they learn over time.
There is nothing dishonorable in acknowledging that plans did not work out as hoped, and then adjusting fire. Fauci readily admits that he has done so over his career -- particularly in fighting AIDS back in the 1980s.
I, a mere layman, did my own research and easily learned that what Fauci, the CDC and the FDA were telling us was utter bullcrap.

and probably wrestling with the concept of "Mitigation" as well...maybe even the adage "Perfect is the enemy of Good"...
Masks do work...some better than others...why do you struggle with this?

So who can we trust in the government about anything?

Locales that were open had the same death rates and the majority were "with COVID."
Masks are practically useless, contact tracing was a comolete waste of time, most healthy people wdere never in serious dange and natural immunity is far superior to the nin-vaccjne.
The list goes on and and on.

btw, didn't you get vaxxed before your bout with COVID?
Masks "Mitigate" transmission of airborne viruses...i.e. they reduce the number of cases...hospitalizations...deaths...this is rock sold fact.
My very healthy golf tournament partner, and good friend chose to be unvaccinated...he died of COVID...
Why do you have this battle with rational thinking?
Maybe in California or in acadmeia this delusional myth still exists... but not in everyday life for ordinary people
"And yet her ICU was full of unvaccinated Covid patients, from all over the state. These were her people. She’s from a small town called Danville, 45 minutes south of Lexington, and when her rapid-fire speech slows down for a moment, a drawl creeps in.
“I feel like a failure,” she said. “On some level physicians have failed, because 99% of us think vaccines are the answer. And yet the communities, the people who are our people, don’t trust us.”.
----------------------
As I've mentioned before, our own ICU Doc tells us the same thing...nearly all COVID ICU patients are unvaccinated...stop wearing your 'Virtual Reality' helmet

same people who were busily working on Ebola and Zika viruses with nary a complaint from the "Peanut Gallery", suddenly become 'Tyrants' when COVID hits?...what sort of "Mind Warp" took place to cause all those medical professionals to become political animals all of a sudden?
Maybe it wasn't them who became members of a 'Tyrannical Cult'...maybe it was a true autocratic and narcissistic "Tyrant" in the guise of a U.S. President who caused all that discord.

Direct quote from the president.
People don't like being gaslit and it erodes public trust.

Or was it that people didn't anticipate variants that could get around the vaccines?
And maybe the guidance changed as the facts changed.
Or maybe you're right and he was just lying because he wanted to gaslight people or control them or some crap.
And this is why people don't listen or care any more and have lost interest among other things.
But do I need to point out all of the clear gaslighting that has gone on? Most recent being "The Inflation Reduction Bill" that will do no such thing. Redefining the term "Recession", "Don't say gay", etc.
Welcome to the United States.
Professionals, the adults are in charge, best in the world, disinformation Governance Board, etc, etc, etc.
Edit to add, and yes Trump lied about everything too.
was wrong about. But he will be remembered as a "hero". What a joke.

With COVID? That’s important but the “million dead Americans” is a really dramatic number and you love drama. I’m sure you believe there isn’t a difference in those 2 things.
Not surprised you bring it up.

COVID deaths. Of course you believe it because its dramatic.
