The pandemic response globally has been a case study in what not to do. A perfect storm of misinformation and fear, plus a healthy dose of opportunism. Now the CDC is straight up withholding data in case we “misinterpret” it. [1]

No, just no.

Yes, there’s been hiccups. Yes, misinformation made rounds.

But we formulated safe and effective vaccines in months for it, rolled them out in ridiculous speeds and saved many lives.

In contrast to past pandemics, we’ve handled this ridiculously well and we owe our butts to recent advancements in mRNA tech.

So no, historically speaking, it’s been a case study of “there’s been problems, but an overwhelming success”.

So how many lives were saved by vaccines (to the nearest thousand)? And how many by lockdowns?

CDC changing the definition of the word vaccine to suit their ageneda is not simple 'misinformation'

What agenda? What are you even going on about.
