democracy dies in data adulteration – control the data, control the technocracy

the public punditry rages around policy and “decision makers” but what informs these people? the data. and who generates that data? who knows? you never hear their names or numbers called, but they are producing the “facts” that feed and inform all else.

who decided to define covid deaths as “any death with a positive PCR test at a 40 Ct” or even a death within 30 days of such a positive test?

who decided to count as a covid case any positive test result using a monstrously over-sensitive diagnostic underpinned by a regime of mass testing of the asymptomatic never before undertaken in human history?

this did not come out of nowhere. someone made these choices and determined what the “data” was going to be for this whole affair. and that person pivoted the whole world upon the fulcrum of this seemingly small technical choice.

does anyone have the slightest idea who it was or how these dodgy definitions came to dominate so much of the world so suddenly and in such stark departure from all past practice and from basic sense?

how different might the last 3 years have been had these countings been performed in the manner in which things like flu are traditionally counted?
