Excellent article. Your description of scientists and engineers is well worth reading and realizing how these so-called experts overstepped their boundaries and authority.

You wrote this in May of 2020. I wrote this in the same month: https://libertarianinstitute.org/articles/what-did-society-benefit-by-social-distancing/. For absolute fact, "all of us" were not fooled. Great minds...

I read your article in the link.

Excellent!

And very logically explained...

You are very kind! The logic was pedestrian, the only type I have, and (thankfully) the only type needed for the covid dumpster fire. Ha!

Thank you.

I never believed any of the nonsense being broadcast, and I’m amazed that so many people didn’t question why the change in policy. Why all previously accepted responses became obsolete

I'm pretty sure they changed the definition of moron.

Along with most other definitions…

When will people learn? None of this was based on data. This is ESG at work. Global Government exercise getting countries and multi national corporations in lockstep. You start letting people aware this was your globalists who did this to you then maybe they will wake up.

People were played and conned. Going to take long time for their psyche to admit it.

Simple. Do Not Comply.

CDC and NIH have been corrupted and politicized. They support Pharma, not our health, while kicking back and enjoying their windfall profits (bribes).

Two major things informed me in March 2020 that there was no public health emergency pandemic. I have been proven right every moment since then. First I studied the PCR test and realized it was being used fraudulently to fabricate cases and deaths. Then I noticed not one single political or public health leader was informing people of the many ways to strengthen their immune systems. Your plan to have prevented this seems a lot more complicated than what caused it, imho. Help me understand how your plan would fix the conditions that led to, and still sustain today, a fake pandemic declaration.

Because the first results based on crude models would be available in 2 to 3 weeks.

That means that by the middle of June, the president would've had solid data to show that all the government bullshit was a waste of time and actually more harmful than the bad cold with very rare neuro issues. And the kind of team that formed could also be used in other complicated situations. But since they didn't do what I proposed, we are still here 3.5 years later debating with morons what could've been known in a short time in June 2020.

At the beginning I was not clued in, I believed the public health messaging until it became unbelievable. As a retired nurse I had never seen any illness be it infectious or otherwise handled by bullying or physically forcing any member of the public to comply with instructions. I was shouting to myself without making a sound, all of it was twisted and unreal and I knew we were in trouble. My view of the world has completely changed since that realisation but it was not based on facts, models or statistics it was gut instinct.

Great piece!

Well thought out.

I'm retired, but did a little research early 2020.

April 2020, I heard the term "EUA", and that is when I decided to remain unvaxxed...

Agreed on all counts. As someone who actually worked in regulated medical devices, it struck me that terms such as "EUA" were political approaches to release either party--the pharma concern or the government--from any subsequent questions of liability or malfeasance. And here we are...

Very good. I would like to summarize what I believe you were saying...We have a bunch of egotistical people who think they are very smart telling everyone else what to do because they are the "experts", but they obviously are NOT experts in everything, and they are too egotistical to even consider bringing in others who ARE qualified to give advice in other areas. As a result, we have a pitiful failed pandemic response that causes way more harm than good.

There was a good Substack recently discussing the dimwits. Apparently, Western World is ruled by the smart people. However, this is only due to the smarter people having difficult time explaining things to the masses

Now the smart people are angry because the smarter people (us) won’t stop questioning them on the vax.

We should never stop We all know who the guilty ones are in our lives. Never stop asking them or continually bring up the death count. Don’t let them get away with it.

In other words it is time to ridicule.

Excellent article, John. I commend you for your detailed explanation about the differemce between scientists and engineers. As you say, not "all of us" were fooled.

I can tell you, from day 1, I was not fooled. And I did not have to go through any complicated analysis, nor consideration of data (which are all bogus anyway, based on a definition of "case" defined by a PCR). I just had to have a basic knowledge of how we had responded to epidemics of respiratory viral diseases in the past: wash your hands frequently, stay at home if you are sick, cover your mouth and nose if you sneeze or cough... No masks, no lockdowns, no arrows on the floor, no businesses closing, no plexiglass barriers... Why ignore practices that have been established for decades? Everything the "experts" forced everyone to do was against all previously established principles of medicine, public health and ethics. How could they fool so many people? (Not "all of us").

All of this means nothing.

Great ideas. I don't like the idea of Agencies as that is why we are where we are at now. We did not elect these agencies. Yet they seem to fascilate the rules.An organization that cannot get rich off the misery of others.
