"We lied 'cause y'all be sheeps" — American government's excuse for its early COVID-19 mask untruths

What follows is old COVID news . . .

 

. . . that has indicatively reappeared, and again without a significant ripple of outrage.

 

Recall when our own Government — in addition to the sometimes-cretins at the World Health Organization — told the public that masks (of any kind) were not helpful in dealing with COVID-19's early spread?

 

Those statements arrived under circumstances in which any epidemiologically knowledgeable person would have reasoned that masks, even homemade ones, would be pandemic-reducing:

 

 

Dr. [Anthony] Fauci [Director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease] joined TheStreet to talk about why masks are important when you leave the house, and to better explain why there was back and forth in the beginning.

 

[W]hy weren't we told to wear masks in the beginning?

 

"Well, the reason for that is that we were concerned the public health community, and many people were saying this, were concerned that it was at a time when personal protective equipment, including the N95 masks and the surgical masks, were in very short supply.

 

"And we wanted to make sure that the people namely, the health care workers, who were brave enough to put themselves in a harm way, to take care of people who you know were infected with the coronavirus and the danger of them getting infected."

Notice a couple of points

 

First, there has not been much (if any) public anger re-expressed at this overt Government admission that it treats the public like sacrificial sheep.

 

Are "We the Rabble" content with being considered too dumb to react appropriately to truthful information?

 

Truthful information like:

 

 

Yeah folks, we'uns in Gov'mint were too lazy, stupid and cheap to build up the nation's critically important medical mask supply.

 

So y'all gonna have to die, while COVID makes it rounds.

 

Don't buy no masks, neither, 'cause your price-plundering (also pants-down) medical system needs 'em.

 

Obey and succumb!

 

 

Second, Director Fauci's waning credibility took another hit.

 

 

Specifics — first, were "We the People" actually dumb?

 

Did you notice, at the time Government and WHO were lying about the alleged non-benefits of face coverings during the COVID pandemic, smart folks all over the place were making their own masks?

 

Did you see the impressive volume of YouTube videos demonstrating exactly how to do this?

 

Maybe the sheep weren't so passively stupid, after all.

 

Kee-rikey, even Chinese businesses were making masks and sending them over here.

 

I thought that was hilarious.

 

Supposedly security-conscious American leadership had shipped virtually our entire medical preparedness industry to China and India.

 

And now, COVID-ridden, locked-down China was having to send those products back to us, to save our silly asses.

 

 

Specifics — second, Fauci continues to leak away his credibility

 

First, he lied about the pretended safety of flying sick and not-sick COVID patients back to the USA on the same aircraft.

 

Then, he dismissed hydroxychloroquine for not being a potentially useful pharmaceutical against SARS-CoV-2 — even before there was any sound evidence for doing so. He basically began by citing evidence like this (see here) asinine mispresentation of hyrdroxychloroquine's hazards.

 

Later, improved studies also dismiss the malaria drug. But every one of those (as of my writing today) is flawed by not using hydroxychloroquine in the same way that anecdotally successful physicians have been using it.

 

These study shortcomings appear to be intentionally made. Either that, or the medical research industry is populated with some obtusely unthinking people.

 

Repetitive lying, determined stupidity, and blatant corruption in the COVID investigative process have gone so far, as to cause one such study to be retracted for its obvious falsifications. See here.

 

I am not saying that (very early infection dosing of) hydroxychloroquine and zinc work.

 

I am saying that proving that the combination does not work, needs to test it under the timing, dosage and patient-condition circumstances that some physicians say it works.

 

One would think that a man of Fauci's accomplishments would be able to adequately read medical research studies for their sometimes easily discernible flaws. Evidently, not so.

 

And, does Fauci have a too-excited interest in Remdesivir?

 

One wonders, given his evidently too-favorably applied, early lack of scientific objectivity regarding it.

 

Last, Fauci — as we've said — very casually (tacitly) admitted that he was part of lying to the American public about the supposed inutility of wearing masks to slow the COVID pandemic's spread.

 

From all this, I tentatively conclude, based on the available evidence, that Dr. Fauci is yet another American leader worthy of only occasional and very discriminating credence.

 

 

Compare and contrast . . .

 

. . . South Korea's Fauci-equivalent — Professor Kim Woo-Joo, who works at Korea University Guro Hospital in Seoul:

Whom would you implicitly trust with your life, Dr. Kim or Dr. Fauci?

 

Do you tentatively intuit (based on this and other evidence) a noticeable difference in quality of governance between South Korea and the United States?

 

 

The moral? — Top levels of American national government are not on our side

 

US national leaders lie, manipulate and propagandize. Every day, all day. They are consistently and almost exclusively self-interested.

 

Let's review.

 

Given an opportunity to come clean about the United States' abysmal lack of national security preparedness — for a deadly pandemic that anyone with a brain knew was coming for decades:

 

 

our Government's Adam Henrys instead decided

 

to trick the American public

 

into thinking that masks

 

(even homemade ones)

 

would not assist them

 

in protecting themselves

 

to some significant degree.

 

 

And that, friends, qualifies as intentional manslaughter.

 

Which in most legal lexicons equates to some level of murder.

 

The fact that the Lamestream and The Rabble reacted so passively to Dr. Fauci's confirmation of what we already knew, says it all.

 

Some of us are admittedly stupid. The rest know that American national Government is a predatory enterprise.
