Taking advantage of a situation doesn’t mean you caused it. This is correlation != causation situation. Anti-vaxxers didn’t cause covid but the captured the moment to exploit it.

No matter what is the reality, one thing is for sure - you should never, ever trust in any meaningful way a single word from anybody from those agencies. Whether they are incompetent beyond belief or just good liers is not so important.

Just that, as an non-American teenager, I was surprised how that happened and how the left capitulated to it. To me it seemed obvious that you shouldn’t grant even more authoritarian powers to agencies that have historically had poor oversight and results.
