IF it were a true life altering pandemic then you would have seen people actually getting sick in public, on the streets, while driving, at work, etc. We rarely saw patients who were gravely ill that weren’t severely obese or already in poor shape from something else like cancer or diabetes, that’s how I knew it was severely overblown. The healthy and young were virtually immune to severe illness which is pretty normal for any average cold or flu which is essentially what it was

For me it followed a very predictable Leftist trajectory. The faith in the bureaucrats,the appeals to authority , the strident black and white pronouncements, the coercion, shaming and punishment. Just standard Leftist script stuff.

For me it was the just two weeks narrative that turned into week and months.

As a trained medical professional I knew it was pure BS with the masks.

Prior to Wuhan Flu the little paper masks were known as “PPD” or Personal Protection Device. They were never intended to protect others from self, rather, specifically droplets protection from others.

This doesn’t even cover the fact paper masks are porous and allow viruses to pass through. Everyone in surgery except the patient wears one to prevent splatter from the surgery hitting them in the face. There’s plenty of splatter in various procedures, especially the ones requiring a hammer.

The silence of opposing voices. I’m not saying who is or who isn’t right. I’m just saying when I see a concentrated effort to silence others, it is suspicious.

The second it became political which was the first day. I knew, like everything with politics, it was full of shite with an agenda.

I’ve learned not to believe anything if it’s coming from someone representing a republican or a democrat.

Two weeks to stop the spread never made any sense whatsoever. It’s a virus and was never going to be eradicated in two weeks, so it would just start spreading at the end of that two weeks even if orders were followed flawlessly.

Obviously the CDC/NIH would know that, so it was clear that they were going with deceptive messaging from the outset.

I think it was bulsh as well. But as a trained medical professional, do you wear or take precautions at all? I can't think of a single instance sterilization wasn't paramount. Maybe you can comment where it's not a big deal

I don't know about other states, but they were never required to close here in Alabama. I never missed any of my appointments.

It was the ruling class continuing to do whatever they wanted while people died alone in nursing homes.

The first paragraph is a 2020 reaction. Warp Speed, congressional funds and April 2020 shutdown.

What did you learn then that you discounted after November 2020?

Had two close friends that had direct family dying and they couldn't go visit them, but it was OK for Progressives to gather and burn cities.

In one case, a friend lost her father who died alone and another lost a mother who was only allowed one person to visit her about a week before she passed, also alone.

To read nurses on this site come and brag about how this was needed and anyone that wanted to be with their families were "greedy" and "inconsiderate".

Pure. fricking. Evil.

For me it was when I researched too many hours to count of Doctors who have studied viruses and other disciplines for many years and they were being silenced and losing their jobs for questioning the severity or saying to avoid future vaccines number one. Two when “science” could not be debated and only one solution was accepted. I didnt know what to think March 2020 and was quite concerned this was legit. By Mid summer I had enough info to determine it was about to be a scam.

When the president was called a racist and a bigot for suggesting limiting or halting travel from China (Specifically the Wuhan Region) to the US when most every other nation had already closed off travel to and from China as a matter of public safety.

At that moment I know it was one of two things.

A) The virus wasn't that serious and they knew it.
or
2) The were willing to risk killing us all to make the President look bad as a leader.
