   Of all the people to write something like that you were the last I   
   expected. I know you are aware that main stream media pushes   
   propaganda not truth, I know you are.   
      
   Surely you remember that we had professors of serious note like   
   Sunetra Gupta who were completely shut out of the conversation   
   because politicians had decided what the truth was going to be and   
   only allowed doctors who agreed with the narrative to speak. Perhaps   
   you were unaware of the group that formed of viral experts from   
   across the globe offering an alternative view which was shut out.   
      
   The models were from that well known Prof Neil Ferguson otherwise   
   know as pants down because he didn't believe his own model when it   
   came to his sexual desires and broke the rules.   
      
   This man is and was at the time notorious for massive exaggeration of   
   deaths from every virus that got near us. He had form for this kind   
   of nonsense and then some. He was always massively WRONG. But his   
   ridiculous models were very useful for the narrative.   
      
   We both know from ACC how models only reflect the opinion or desire   
   of their creator, they are propaganda tools, nothing more.   
      
   You also seem unaware that many deaths attributed to covid were   
   really from other things like the end of life drug, I'd have to look   
   the name given to many elderly in care homes. Or that ventilators   
   were in themselves the cause of deaths.   
      
      
   But congratulations. I've never seen such an expert job of air   
   brushing inconvenient truths.   
      
   Surprisingly you too seem to be a victim of the media.   
      
   No point in arguing further.   
      
   Bob.
