sense:
got in line with what the CDC and the AMA are saying now
dave_s:
You mean aligned with those two totalitarian propaganda machines.
Yes, exactly. They're all still enthrall to the concept that they are, and should be, "one big global borderless team"... which is clearly nonsense... and dangerous nonsense as the current event is proving, again. I did see one statement on the CDC website today... wish I'd taken the bookmark now... in which there was the most outrageous globalist totalitarian assertion... about how they're an integral part of DIRECTING the global health control program... the actual words were worse than mine...
The CDC, initially... just saluted and got in alignment with what the WHO said. They basically had to be slapped up the side of the head with a 2 X 4... to knock some sense into them... to get them to quit posting China's OBVIOUSLY WRONG manipulated numbers as fact... while basing U.S. policy on them.
The WHO is truly hopeless. It is corrupt. It is paid for by China... and in result just repeats China's propaganda without qeustioning, whatever that is on a given day. Not just in this instance, but in many... the WHO's net contribution to the world's health is a net negative by a wide margin. They almost single-handedly converted the EASILY SOLVED problems driving the Ebola outbreak in West Africa into a "fail" that was driving it into becoming a global pandemic... when it never should have gotten close to that.
The math error in question here now... also had its origin in China. China got it wrong... whether because they didn't know how to do it right, or because getting it wrong on purpose "looked better"... or because they wanted to lure others into calculating risks wrongly... to lure them into making policy errors... In any case, the WHO just parroted China's numbers and China's narrative...
Others who simply trusted China's numbers and the China/WHO narrative in interpreting them... were sucked into duplicating the same errors. Johns Hopkins is one of those... their pages still note that their presentation is just a graphic regurgitation of the WHO's data. Maybe an issue there, too, like Harvard and Yale, with the flow of China $ driving "blind faith" while undermining the real value of the brand ?
Others are still stuck on "we know they're lying to us... but what else can we do"?
The AMA has fallen into that trap. They're proceeding, knowingly, in assuming the Chinese numbers are both valid and "good enough" to use, leading them to decide that it is more important to not "induce errors" by changing the methods used in counting... than it is to correct egregious errors in methodology... that require they can't possibly deliver correct information. The AMA would rather compare incorrect information to incorrect information... to eliminate the artifacts change would impose... than actually get it right. <Doh! slaps forehead>
It's very disheartening... to see how often "the self-anointed experts"... are... so painfully slow on the uptake. They will get it right... eventually... which is not a reason to have greater confidence in them. Once the pandemic is over... they will correctly compute the mortality rate... only when getting it right has no potential to matter in limiting the body count in real time... by adjusting policy to address the reality faced at the time it does matter.
If you can't get the math right... to understand the risk correctly... you can't get policy right...
A political angle ? Some may be TRYING to induce errors in understanding risks... to induce errors in policy... hoping to induce political change of a particular stripe ? Of course they are.
The first correct response... is to not let them get away with imposing risks on us that way...
For what its worth... that doesn't mean I think the medical personnel, even when they're wrong, aren't acting in good faith... even in China. If you want "better" information from China... do read what the doctors in the hospitals are saying... and then extrapolate from the (relatively) unfiltered first hand information... and NOT from what the government is publishing... which clearly is "can't get there from here" bad... near fictional... with the changes being made over time proving the nature of the errors imposed... which are not "technical issues"... but "errors made in editing numbers without understanding how that exposes truth". |
