And the governments and pubic bought the scaremongering. Meanwhile the same scientists are raking it in through worldwide sales of vaccines that they developed and licensed. Did someone not predict twelve months ago that we'd be here at this point? Forced vaccines and vaccine passports - but then I'm just a Covidiot so what do I know?

That's the problem with picking up on one element of a person and judging them purely on that element; there's usually significantly (that's at the 95% acceptance level by the way) more to that person.

I don't have to prove anything in this discussion because all I've done is guess and assume a safety factor of 5 being applied to projections, you're the one that gave a definitive figure of 3 million dead that can't be backed up or proven. But I see you've backed away from that assertion after being challenged on it.

It's difficult to put forward a coherent argument if you focus too narrowly on one characteristic, can't prove what you quote as fact and can't back up your data.
Nope,I am saying 3 million dead because that's the number.

So your argument is that scientist can't possibly come up with an accurate outcome because they have never faced this scenario before, but at the same time scientists got the number spot on,THEN multiplied it by five just to scare an ex RAF man who doesn't scare easily because he has a degree in a science, with some statistics, but he is guessing.

So here is a test for you.....

Do you agree covid is real?
Do you agree people have died due to covid?
2 yes answers means you should be a little scared, even with your degree in a science. The only people who are not scared are the ones that are too stupid to know better, even if it's only a little bit.

And being quoted as a reference,how do you know? And do they quote you positively or negatively,and how do you know? And when they quote you,is it in any subject to do with infectious diseases?
Does a dissertation in change management qualify you to second guess experts in infectious diseases?

When you said you were a covidiot,you got three too many letters in there
