Bullsheet in service of the agenda.

RE: COVID-19 misinformation contributed to 2,800 deaths.  A CP story by Nicole Ireland.  The Hamilton Spectator 27 Jan 23.

Whenever I read such obvious bullsheet, I wonder how it ever got to be news?  How could they know what they claim to know?  What agenda is being served?  Who wrote this?

Look at the weasel words: misinformation and contributed.  What was “misinformation,” that if you took the vaccine, you wouldn’t get COVID, or that the vaccines did not prevent infection or transmission and were essentially worse than useless for young, and healthy people?  In precisely what way does misinformation contribute to a person’s death?

How can a researcher know what was in the mind of a person who died of COVID, especially after the fact?  What about all those people who survived COVID, or didn’t get it while misinformed?  It is impossible to know what is claimed, i.e. that 2800 died from misinformation.  Turns out, they, the alleged “researchers,” have no data, only mathematical models; and ,models aren’t data and don’t produce data.  They don’t even have data to extrapolate from.  And 2,800 is a substantial proportion of the total.  It’s all bullsheet.

The agenda being served is State and Big Tech censorship.  Only ‘trusted sources’ should be allowed to speak with a megaphone, all others being suppressed, they recommend.  And the trusted sources all work for the government.

Finally, who are these people?  I’ve never heard of the “Council of Canadian Academies” before.  Turns out, they’re little different from Troy Media.  The “paper” on which the CP story is based doesn’t appear to have been published in a peer-reviewed journal, not that that means anything nowadays.

The Spec published the story because government and Big Tech censorship is congenial to its past editorial positions: in this crisis do whatever the government wants and believe whatever they want you to believe.  Nevertheless, the claims are bullsheet.
