CDC Director Rochelle Walensky: 'It's not our fault the public heard us wrong' (Twitter Videos)
Twitter Alex Thomp ^ | 03 04 2022 | Alex Thomp

Strikingly frank answer from CDC director Walensky on them being too bullish on vaccines early on “Nobody said ‘waning’ when this vaccine is going to work, ‘oh well maybe it’ll wear off.’ Nobody said ‘well, what if...it’s not as potent against the next variant’”

Alex Thomp Twitter

She continues: “I have frequently said ‘we’re going to lead with the science’...I think public heard that as ‘science is foolproof. Science is black and white.’...The truth is science is grey. And science is not always immediate.“

As someone said on twitter, if she had said this stuff a few days ago - she would have been banned on twitter for “misinformation.”

At the top levels of a corrupt government that has no accountability, that is a perfectly acceptable excuse. It’s the communist way.

I prefer witch doctors to “scientists”, because at least witch-doctors don’t demonize you if you disagree with them.

No. We heard you right the first time.

What you said was, “We are going to use science and the force of arbitrary edicts backed by government guns to force you to do what we want.”

We heard you loud and clear. We’re still REALLY pissed off about it to.

Typical Democrat. Nothing that goes wrong is ever due to their inept decisions.

--- "Science is black and white.’...The truth is science is grey. And science is not always immediate...."

Here's the simple "science" of arithmetic.

As of 7 March 2022, and twenty-six complete months since the Drosten RT-PCR test was coded in Berlin in January 2020, "Global Deaths - 6,001,261."

( 6,001,261 global deaths / 7,882,077,546 global population ) x 100 = a global mortality rate of 0.0761 %.

Not even one-tenth of one percent worldwide.

The pandemic was a media event, hysterical and causing enormous economic and personal injury to whole nations, for the profit of relatively few.

As to the FDA, CDC, NIH, WHO, GAVI, Pfizer, Moderna, SAGE, Communist China and many other "official" science entities, the above mortality rate has been consistently in this range for well over a year. Not a real pandemic, but certainly a real scam.

If one can do this simple arithmetic with easily found "official" numbers, then those like Walensky, Fauci, Collins and the rest could have calculated this huge anomaly in the "official" data. They either did, in which case that they criminally obscured the rate, or they didn't, in which case they should all be fired and charged with malfeasance.

Bullets to everyone of their heads. This was forced upon so many people under the threats of losing their employment and ability to function in open society.

I am not certain of the origins and original meaning of the word, “demonize”, but this statement may, in fact, be entirely incorrect. ;)

Whatever. Leftists politicians have been telling us the science is settled, some of us have been called “deniers” and you people never said a word about it, woman.
You and your leftist ilk, can pound sand.

No, science ISN’T grey. Political science is grey. Biology is amenable to experimentation and process control. Document a process and the results. If you replicate those conditions in some other place under the same conditions, you get the same results.

These people are politicians speaking about political science. She should be tried and executed for mass murder.

I can repeat what I heard over and over “we’re ‘following the science’ which means we’re curtailing your Constitutional rights”. As though we have no argument to be made against it. If you’re against the policy you’re “against the science”. And yes, science is presented as static and absolute, when in reality it is a moving target due to everything being questionable - otherwise it isn’t ‘science’.

I’m waiting for another virus. This time more deadly. Until we can control the limitations of government, based on specific metrics and thresholds that must be crossed, the only thing COVID has taught us is that a virus can be a freedom killer as every government official can instantly transform into a tyrant with the excuse of “to protect the public based on ‘science’”.

Imho...this should never be allowed. The only ‘power’ government officials should have is to issue “emergency recommendations”, NOTHING more. I believe anything short of a Constitutional Amendment will just allow this to continue happening.

You almost got the correct lesson.

The correct lesson is that .gov can declare an “emergency” any time it wants, for any reason it wants, with any powers it wants.

“Freedom” and “democracy” and the documents behind them mean absolutely nothing if we are ruled by sociopaths.

Pieces of paper are not going to save us.

Or, to quote one (forbidden and banned) blogger:

“Power is about who, not what.”

I guess her VAST 20 years of bureaucrat experience isn’t faring so well, huh? All her HARD work in dissembling, detracting, distracting and disinforming the American public has gone by the wayside in the midst of Demented Joe’s need to stop the House and Senate takeover in November and concentrate on keeping the Ukraine/Russia war at the top of the charts. Sucks to be you, girl...
