4 years ago on March 17th 2020, John Ioannidis, the most cited living medical scientist came out with his extraordinarily brave article in Stanford’s STAT online magazine: “A fiasco in the making? As the coronavirus pandemic takes hold, we are making decisions without reliable data
He, and you, revealed your true colors as brave, intelligent, conscientious individuals, while MANY others revealed themselves to be craven sheep, ignorant charlatans, mendacious opportunists, and belligerent ideologues.
Ioannidis was absolutely right about the minuscule IFR and you were absolutely right to highlight his prescient remarks.
The real mortality risk for Covid is probably lower than the common flu for the vast majority of the population. The kicker is that this should have been known early on in the official pandemic. Also, the start date of virus spread has always been off by months - and the real birth date of virus spread has been intentionally concealed from the public.
This was done because evidence of "early spread" - if revealed to the public - would have proven this was NOT a “deadly” virus. No lockdowns were required and certainly no new mRNA non-vaccines.
The first article shows the IFR for several easily-defined cohorts, including the Alabama Department of Public Health, students, athletes, members of Congress, White House employees, etc.
A fiasco in the making? Was spot on! Cui Bono? A fiasco in the making? The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary. H. L. Mencken The Covid Hysteria that followed totally betrayed trump's INCOMPETENCE! One thing for certain trump is no Ike: Leadership consists of nothing but taking responsibility for everything that goes wrong and giving your subordinates credit for everything that goes well.
