The official stats have always contradicted the official narrative, but people were simply too lazy to point a browser to the CDC or state website. The fact that we got banned for pointing this out should have been a huge red flag to everybody that we were dealing with "bad-faith actors" (the new current buzzword!)
"The official stats have always contradicted the official narrative" - So true. In May of 2020 the CDC admitted that the IFR was 0.3% overall and we knew the danger was heavily stratified in the over 70 with multiple comorbidities. At that point I was "Back to work and school everyone" but no matter how hard I tried to explain that an IFR of 0.3% was similar to the Asian flu of the late 1950's or the Hong Kong flu of the late 1960's nobody would listen. They ran around with masks and took shot after shot.
Sigh. The vast majority of my species can not be trusted in an emergency. They will wet their pants and run to the authorities screaming "save me, save me, save me". Doesn't bode well for the species.
Let's not forget that it took a whole year for them to roll out the mRNAs shots. In that year, I read and watched enough to understand that while covid could be nasty, most people got over it just fine, early treatment worked (if you could get it..), going to the hospital for covid was dangerous, mRNA transfection is not immunization, transfection is harmful, immunization doesn't work for respiratory viruses etc. So I didn't get the shot.
The greatest health stressor in all of this wasn't actually covid ( though for me it truly wasn't pleasant), it was the authoritarianism, social coercion, mandates, gaslighting and medical malfeasance.
I'm done with covid, but not with the folks who pushed this (or their lackeys).
Also don't forget they held off on the announcement until just after the election, because they didn't want Trump to be right about when it would be available.
December 8, 2020: "I run an ICU where there's nothing but patients with COVID. I don't see any other disease any more. All I see is COVID, COVID, COVID. And they are all dying."
Some miscreant from Elmhurst I imagine is who you're referring to, but forget who was running that scam over there at that time.
I do remember the brouhaha at Elmhurst, the tents, the ambulances, etc., full emergency mode, losts of MSM reports, and then the next day, some guy on the Internet driving around the hospital, filming... all the stuff was still there, tents, ambulances, etc., but no one anywhere to be seen.
Once the Big Media circus had been acted out, the site was abandonned, but the fear had been unleashed, transmitted, implanted.
The Republican Governor of South Carolina also shut down the beaches. I believe Florida did the same. I remember being in Miami in March 2020 and having restrictions on how many family members were "allowed" at our house - we were concerned the neighborhood Karen was going to report us. Traumatizing!
"Unfortunately, in some parts of the United States, the proportion of citizens routinely wearing standard masks in at-risk environments is nowhere near what's required to prevent spread. The fact that the maximal exhaled viral load of infected persons occurs before the development of actual symptoms should concern all who might come into close indoor proximity with maskless presymptomatic 'super spreaders.'"
I do. I remember those Doctors. Couldn't believe what someone was doing to all the information from the front line Doctors...I knew it was a criminal operation by our government at that point. I didn't want to beleive it, but I did...I am still in disbelief that this actually happened. I have since figured out that everything I thought or believed was wrong.
Especially that we had a representative democracy....I realized it was over, and since have figured out it has been over since at least since JFK was assisinated.
What a waste of my life...lviing in la la land, thinking I was free.
And now, they are trying to kill us all. Our only job is to figure out how to prevent it.
I've always thought that informing as many people as possible, or at the very least planting seeds, was the thing we needed to focus on first and foremost.
Once we have the numbers, then we can move to the next step, which is likely arrests.
The MSM wrongly and unfairly painted these doctors as fringe kooks. <sigh> I long fervently for the day that the powers that be are held to account. I know, I know...I won't hold my breath.
The most important thing is to never stop holding your breath. Keep hoping for a breakthrough, keep fighting for it, keep expecting it, keep expecting it from others.
The very last and worst thing we can do is accept defeat, the worst we can do is to accept defeat, to believe that we cannot win... that is the very worst thing we could do, and the very best scenario in Their eyes.
We must NEVER give them the satisfaction. If/when we do, we give them an edge, we put wind in their sails, we give them hope and a renewed burst of energy, all while setting ourselves back a few steps.
Never expect , nor accept, anything other than Justice.

I remember them and am so glad you do, too! I consider them among the earliest heroes. I watched their press conference at the time it aired with the greatest sense of relief to FINALLY hear someone speaking sense. I thought this would help shake people out of their unscientific, mindless stupor, and the madness would soon subside (HA!). I have referenced this seminal video numerous times, including in the notes for my Corona Investigative Committee presentation in July 2022:
"Unfortunately, in some parts of the United States, the proportion of citizens routinely wearing standard masks in at-risk environments is nowhere near what's required to prevent spread. The fact that the maximal exhaled viral load of infected persons occurs before the development of actual symptoms should concern all who might come into close indoor proximity with maskless presymptomatic 'super spreaders.'"
Ouch, that didn’t age well. To quote Pierre about himself from “The War on Ivermectin”: “He was a clueless sonofabitch.”
From his coauthor Jenna McCarthy:
“In our book The War on Ivermectin, my co-author Dr. Pierre Kory opens with a description of the man he calls ‘Old Pierre,’ a book-smart but clearly brainwashed dude … Dr. Kory self-reflects:
“‘Old Pierre believed that the elite, esteemed medical journals represented the best of scientific thought and study. The Lancet or the New England Journal of Medicine said so? It was settled then. Old Pierre religiously read the New York Times from cover to cover, because it was the paper of record; the arbiter of truth. If you wanted to know what was really going on, you read the Times. Period. He voted for Biden (although in his defense, he wasn’t exactly a fan and never put a BIDEN-HARRIS ring around any of his social media profile photos), trusted the government (I know!), and actually believed that public health agencies were committed to safeguarding and improving . . . wait for it . . . public health. He knew—knew, I tell you!—that vitamins were a scam and that hospitals were life-saving centers of care, compassion, and excellence. Old Pierre dutifully lined up for his own annual flu shot and followed the childhood immunization schedule to the letter with his three daughters.’” (https://jennamccarthy.substack.com/p/lets-agree-to-disagree)
It's cute how all the Progressives who brought us Obama's 3rd term (authoritarian regime) have bullied their way to positions of "leadership" within the mostly Conservative MFM. It's no surprise that Malone, McCullough, Kory, Kirsch, RFK Jr., DNC all share the same PR guy who was forced to shut down his successful business after accusations of sexual abuse. But worry not, he rebranded and controls the "messaging" of all these Progressives- helping them fool the unsuspecting Conservatives and Independents into idolizing and more importantly, financially subsidizing them - CHD and Kory's 990s speak loudly. Nonprofits and book deals are used as money laundering schemes- but let’s ignore the facts and pretend that money doesn't corrupt, control and silence folks. They're the untouchables, with junkyard dogs that protect them - enter Meryl Nass and her "don't frag our boy Malone" 🙄
I remember them well. I also remember the "Dixie Chicks" who announced they were ashamed to be American after GWBJr invaded Iraq and they were canceled way back in 2003. This government propaganda and media dominance has been going on for decades. I remember at work anyone even suggesting they might be right was immediately thought of as Saddam lovers and America haters. The worst is, history is considered old news and must be burred to ensure all stories start in the "3rd Act". Ignorance is bliss, until it ends in tragedy.
Mine was probably the 2m or 6 ft anti-social distancing (it was never social) rule here in the UK. I knew that 2m and 6ft are not exactly the same so if not that accurate what about the rest.,
I pretty much said the same thing on hacker news when the lockdowns were announced, only to be met with screeching alarmists, technocrat enforcers, fearmongers, downvotes, and eventually my reputation on the site was so damaged I could no longer comment. I have never once went back to that pile of dung website. The world is filled with mentally debilitated idiots who would rather be spoon fed information than learn, make assumptions to conform to authority, and be sweaty, stinking lapdogs of the tech industry and media industrial complex.
People were targeted and punished for daring to question that "official" narrative.
We must not just remember that the government was wrong on COVID. We must remember that both the government and their Big Tech Social Media proxies were demonstrably malicious when it came to COVID.
They were not just factually wrong. They were morally, ethically, and legally wrong as well--and they still are even today. The Pandemic Panic Narrative may have run its course and faded away, but the mendacity and the malignancy it spawned within our government and within our society remains.
Yes, as you said "millions of cases, small death". And it's been the situation from the start, we had a "casedemic", and it was obsessing on case numbers rather than fatality rate than put us in such a bloody mess.
But it was presumably intentional, "they" wanted a pandemic at all costs, and the fact millions weren't dying was simply inconvenient to the narrative they were pushing. Sadly the propaganda worked
It was all sadly necessary as the frog in the pot scenario was underway, the gradual raising of temperature until it is too late. The sudden rise in temperature caused many to jump out thankfully.
I DO remember them! those no nonsense guys in that bland setting with the little white orchid on the table! Strikingly unusual like common sense. Love them!
These two got buried fast, deep and quiet . I remember being so relieved that someone was talking sense, and then they were gone. This was one of the real dominos that showed the fix was in. I spent two years plus waking up every morning thinking wtf happened to the world. I think now it’s just become a permanent state of mind. Must be long COVID madness syndrome!?!
I remember working in an emergency department listening to “doctors” denigrate these guys and call them Trumpers. I remember PAs and NPs saying they hoped people like this died. I remember providers later saying that anyone skeptical of the jabs were obviously idiots. “It’s just a protein,” like a prion isn’t “just a protein.”
I remember people presenting to the ED with cancer, terminal cancer, because they couldn’t go to outpatient appointments. I remember my colleagues getting fired because they didn’t want the jabs -- even though they worked the ICU floors for months in 2019 and 2020.
The official stats have always contradicted the official narrative, but people were simply too lazy to point a browser to the CDC or state website.

And the rest of us denied our right to earn a living unless we too wet our pants and run to government to save us.
It's a good think there is no democracy. Can you imagine!!!
Yes I can imagine, we'd all be in concen... er... quarantine camps right now.
They seem to be able to do whatever they want ... where is the evidence of democracy?
Of course if you let the mob influence decisions... we'd descend into Beyond Idiocracy quickly

I still prefer the older “dirty rotten scoundrels” to describe these criminals.
MORE-ONS allow cnnbbc to do their thinking... for some reason they trust the talking heads.

Do you remember when California arrested paddleboarders and filled kids' skate parks with sand? I member!
And they shut down the beach! 🤪
The Republican Governor of South Carolina also shut down the beaches. I believe Florida did the same. I remember being in Miami in March 2020 and having restrictions on how many family members were "allowed" at our house - we were concerned the neighborhood Karen was going to report us. Traumatizing!
Insanity! 🤪
Ah the 'bubbles'. Caused by too many baked beans I reckon.
Or should that be half baked human beans. :)

So very right. Hope they ar re both ok..

Very well said. Never give up.
I totally remember them! My sane friends and I were so excited at the time to see some doctors in mainstream media talk sense.
I remember those guys!
Thank you NE, for going back into history and digging this up.
Good on you.

As though they'd never previously known the history of the region they came from. Performative all the way down.
There were many red flags there's were among the first. They certainly contributed to many of us waking up.
