While I absolutely believe most on the left are this crazy, this guy was playing Veritas.
It would be a terrible choice of a game, if true; this could easily cost him his job.
Based on the first half of this video, it's possible that he's trolling PV.
However, the second half of the video takes a turn towards something that is not a troll, and is likely what WILL get this guy in trouble.
He starts talking about the cost/benefit analysis and puts a general price on a life at $5 million. I've been in corporate meetings/training classes where people who do this kind of analysis know these things exist but nobody will openly put a price on a life. We all knew the rules for our benefit insurance plans, i.e., how much we would get if we lost a limb on the job, or an eye, or our life. It was in the published plans. But we never used any of this when doing cost/benefit analysis on a project.
But the concerning part about what he said was when talking about the political appointees. He says that the "career scientists" do not think about the monetary cost of losing lives due to the vaccine, but that "the political appointees do." He portrayed the people appointed by the President and confirmed by the Senate as craven power grabbers who think only about money first.
At this point in the conversation, I stopped believing that PV was being trolled. Nobody in his right mind would dis the government commissars planted in their organization, even if he thought he was trying to do a good thing by tricking a reporter into publishing something extreme. He's either really stupid, really naïve, or was just drunk and lost his self-censor at the wrong time.

I’m not going to slag on them because they are effective. But don’t buy it all hook, line, and sinker.
