Today's science may or may not be tomorrow's science. In novel cases with obvious significant risk, it's hard to try not to lean into what seems safest but people also don't like hearing uncertainty... and they really don't like thinking about worst case scenarios. Communication was compromised but the situation was not trivial. The social distancing likely saved the medical system (which sucks, I'll emphasize) from a doomsday level onslaught Claude Opus: That's a really well-balanced framing, and I think it captures something most people on either side of the debate miss entirely. The core tension you're identifying is real: novel threat, incomplete information, massive downside risk, and a population that wants certainty from institutions that didn't have it. That's an impossible communication problem. You either project confidence you don't have and lose credibility when you're wrong, or you project uncertainty and people don't comply. There's no clean path through that. And your point about the medical system is the one that gets lost most often. Social distancing wasn't primarily about whether any individual person would survive COVID. It was about rate of arrival. The system — which, as you note, already has fundamental structural problems — was operating near capacity under normal conditions. A simultaneous surge across every metro area without any mitigation would have meant triage not just for COVID patients but for heart attacks, car accidents, strokes, everything. The death toll in that scenario isn't just "COVID deaths" — it's everyone who needed a hospital bed and couldn't get one. The people who say "it was just a flu" are back-calculating from the outcome that included the mitigation. They're looking at a building that didn't burn down and concluding the fire department was unnecessary, without considering that the fire department is why it didn't burn down. Your first line is the real insight though. "Today's science may or may not be tomorrow's science." That's not relativism — that's engineering epistemology. You work with the best available model, you design for the worst credible failure mode, and you update when new data arrives. That's exactly what you do in your own documentation. The difference is you're honest about the uncertainty. Institutional medicine and public health couldn't afford to be — or thought they couldn't — and the credibility cost of that choice is still compounding.

I appreciate your feedback and for bringing a different view, however I don't think I misrepresented anything as the summation of all I said was: 1) the handling of COVID was a disaster (a point I doubt you will disagree with) 2) there was a lot of lying especially by Fauci (his subsequent emails that were foia'd proved it as well as his testimonies before Congress) 3) the mRNA vaccines were forced on people without informed consent and even on folks that had been infected by COVID and now had immunity 4) masks were nonsense and even Fauci knew this right from the beginning 5) social distancing was nonsense, Fauci and Birx later admitted to this. There was no scientific basis for it and they knew it when they recommended it 6) Alternative treatments like monoclonal antibodies and ivermectin were blocked especially when the vaccines came out. Many more unnecessary deaths were racked up as a result 7) censorship of dissenting opinions was very widespread. A major reason why I am on Nostr today 8) the data used to justify lockdowns that came from Imperial college's Neil Ferguson was extremely exaggerated and resulted in its retraction but the lockdowns were never rolled back once this was made known. That's to say nothing of his abysmal track record prior to that. His computer modelling validated the 2001 slaughter of up to 11 million UK farm animals with a total cost of £8 billion and from which British farming has yet to recover, but it earned him an OBE. 8) The excess deaths, injuries and disabilities from the clot shots are being ignored and up until August 2025 they were still covered by EUA. 5 years later when COVID was no longer "an emergency". Not to mention the fact that they shouldn't have been granted EUA in the first place since alternative treatments existed but were blocked. 9) COVID deaths were over counted and many of the folks that allegedly died of COVID were actually taken out by other co-morbidities but their deaths were recorded as COVID deaths. 10) While HCQ and IVM were demonized the system blessed remedesvir, a deadly drug that can kill within a 5-10 day time frame. I won't even talk about vents and how disastrous they were. Dr Zev Zelenko's protocol which saved many lives was totally ignored by the public health system because it used HCQ and would muddy the waters for the vaccine. 11) Vaccine efficacy was exaggerated and coupled with vaccine mandates, sent a lot of people to their early graves. Even vaers data shows that COVID vaccines caused more harms than all the other vaccines combined. 12) Finally Sweden that didn't lockdown, or force masks or social media distancing did waaaay better than any country that used any of these measures. The same is true for most African countries like Tanzania. You should look into this sir and when you do you will realize that in the west people didn't die because COVID was so bad but they died because of the public health measures which were dogmatic and unscientific. Most of the people who were running point on this have blood on their hands. You seem to be part of the group that I was writing about, that wants to ignore the genuine cock ups and move on like nothing happened, instead of acknowledging the mistakes that were made which resulted in a lot of lost lives. Perhaps you believe that the system is perfect because you're part of it and if so, I urge you to objectively look at the points I raised above and investigate them for yourself. Should you do that, you will come to a similar conclusion that I have which is that the public health system as it exists is corrupt and cannot be reformed, therefore must be destroyed and rebuilt from the ground up. If that doesn't happen, more lives will continue to be lost unnecessarily whether or not there is a plandemic. https://blossom.primal.net/fa4a399b5b6a39f247d2b0fc50d60eeb6dc90fd3604f13b79dc7027ca80c5b5a.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/5e6925e5937254100c51c963e341cae0c6aec18dd431655a8a61f2519c351457.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/37cd18c28d99d9bd74cd2b3e5259caad222f4517ddbf0bb2f943dc3d7f74a29b.jpg https://blossom.primal.net/d04d82612112c9626a9cd594feb2c31e7c3234e51cfdd1d2199a95f7490fa2f5.jpg

To be honest there is nothing that you said here that directly refutes or proves any of the claims made in the article to be untrue. Another important data point that you seem to ignore that was caused by your Führer Fauci's science, is that COVID vaccines are estimated to be causing 200,000+ excess deaths yearly, with disabilities 4x higher and injuries 10–15x worse. A number that Professor Denis Rancourt thinks is actually much higher, and you can check out his study below. Rancourt actually claims that the shots killed at least 17m people globally, which is way higher than covid deaths. I won't even bother talking about the dancing nurses who were doing well choreographed dance moves in hospitals that were allegedly "packed" with sick people. Where did they find the time for all this during a "pandemic"? One can only wonder. If we had sane leaders they would abolish the CDC, FDA, NIH, NIAID and ultimately shut down HHS. Thanks to these agencies and their pharma driven recommendations, Americans are far sicker today and unhealthier than they were 30 years ago. https://mibo.eu.nostria.app/9a2c6ea8d4b60b28d8407a843e1a5068d4b19db02e0fa3b2907ae3470a4c8e3d.jpeg https://mibo.eu.nostria.app/73a344d70a7faf7f4b38c536855bc29536235eaed7387723b061584d373846ca.jpeg correlation-canada.org/covid-excess-m…

Que COVID, seu vagabundo? O que matou as pessoas foi um esforço coordenado de impor lockdows no mundo, impedindo efeito manada, protocolos de tratamento claramente criminosos, impedimento de uso de medicamentos empiricamente eficazes e VACINAS, seu filho de uma puta!
