There is a huge difference between saying we made a lot of mistakes in the response to covid and saying “virtually nothing” was based on data.

I don’t support people being shut down as you talk about, however you should also appreciate that a ton of people speaking out against the “narrative” were just grifters spreading misinformation for whatever random reason. A lot of the blame for legitimate dissent being ignored is due to the fact that most dissenting views were actively in bad faith.
