Those who chose to disregard the CDC at every point are better off today. We didn't stay home, didn't wear masks, didn't get the !vax, didn't "social distance, " did continue to worship God, and /did/ take alternative treatments. I personally don't believe that the medical elite are simply idiots. For such a perfect record of error, there must be intentional deception and/or malice.

"We need better elites." Yes, we do, but by placing diversity ahead of merit, in terms of hiring, this will not happen any time soon. Competent people will be dismissed, based on sex or ethnicity.

What leads me to believe that we are dealing with malevolence, not incompetence, is the worldwide nature of this drama. Also, why insist that mRNA be injected into every arm under threat of loss of freedom of movement, employment, and educational opportunities? Why were early treatments denied? I watched Sen Ron Johnson's January panel discussion with dissident scientists and doctors. In it, Dr. Paul Malick told how his hospital expressly forbade him from from prescribing Vitamin D (!!!) to his covid patients. This panel discussion is well worth viewing.

The obsession with vaccinating people at near zero risk, and for near zero benefit, and with possibly poorly understood harms, is indeed something to behold. You don't need conspiracy to explain it, you could just say it's about money, or that scientism has become a religious movement, or things like that. But it is something to behold, and it does make you wonder.

Some real high level intellects on substack--William Briggs, el gato malo, eugyppius--believe that this Covid madness stems from incompetence and good, old-fashioned lust for money, and your post bolsters the "incompetence" portion of their argument. To me, it's an inadequate explanation for what's transpiring. Something vey big and very dark is going on. Here's an interesting essay by a British professor who senses something powerful lurking below the surface: https://paulkingsnorth.substack.com/p/what-progress-wants
