So how much of our "news", response, reaction, mindset, policy, etc, etc was based on total bullshit? I think we're still in the early days learning about all the falsified testing, falsified covid origins, covid lab manipulation, waning vaccination effectiveness, ineffective cloth masks, etc.

From the article ... "Many customers also called questioning why they got a negative result from Doctors Clinical Lab but had tested positive through another lab, Morales said." From a related article: https://blockclubchicago.org/2022/01/19/center-for-covid-control-faked-test-results-minnesota-attorney-generals-office-says-in-new-lawsuit/ https://blockclubchicago.org/2022/01/19/center-for-covid-con... "Numerous Chicagoans told Block Club they received negative test results from Doctors Clinical Lab, only to get a positive elsewhere. Others never received results, or received them so late the test was effectively useless. Some people who didn’t even test at the sites were still sent results." It appears you're saying that the response was because there were many false positive tests, when it appears to have been the opposite.

  A negative test allows people to attend events, cross international boundaries, etc, etc because a negative test is treated as definitive. False negatives would have allowed the virus to spread. > It appears you're saying that the response was because there were many false positive tests, when it appears to have been the opposite. I said "falsified testing," you added words and then claimed I was wrong while not understanding that test results - both positive and negative - influence and shape policy decisions at all levels, public and private.

    I think you tripped over a mental shortcut where the huge majority of people who are making claims adjacent to "the government is lying to us about covid" are claiming that covid actually isn't (or never was) as bad as people say it is. So the lazy read of your post is you saying that this story is further evidence of the government overreaction, even if that wasn't your intention.

Too bad the people who saw this 2 years ago was called conspiracy theorists. It seems to me that at least 80% of the population just does what the TV tells them, as long as the people on there has nice titles and credibility. Probably less than 1% look up the criminal history of the cdc, the who, fauci, big pharma and so on. I'm just stating the obvious here but man, it's interesting to watch humanity act like ants following authority without any hesitation. What's so hard about reading about these people?
