It is so disappointing when a politician allows himself to be guided by facts and truth, isn't it? He should push false narratives about the vaccine...even though he has seen first hand as a result of his effective rollout the reduction in cases and deaths and reduction in the strain on the healthcare system as a result of the policies. He should instead look to obscure sources with quacks spreading nonsensical conspiracy theories about the vaccine and go with that rather than what he knows to be completely true based on his own experience in real time.
There is no reason to believe the consistently lying liberal media about COVID-19 and the "vaccines". If they lie to us on so many other matters, why would they tell the truth?
As far as CDC reporting goes, why would they be honest on these matters? These people consistently lied about the source of the virus, denigrated and forbade use of treatments that were effective against COVID-19, e.g. Dr. Zelenko in New York, overestimated the potential deaths from the disease, and recommended the use of masks, which were ineffective.
Alternative media and "conspiracy theorists" are not all necessarily correct, but at least are not pushing a statist agenda of "vaccines" and lockdowns.
