Most hospitals were not full during Covid
They lied about it to justify lockdowns
They continue to lie about it
That lie also wasted millions on pop-up hospitals
This is a thread to show just 10 examples
There are many more
Use it as a reference against the lies

Gavin Newsom wants to pretend he forced lockdowns, masks, and mandates on millions because we didn't know any better at the time.
That is an outright lie. We knew so much in the first two months of Covid that he and other "leaders" ignored.
Here are just a few examples. 🧵
By March 2nd, 2020 we already knew Covid was likely much less dangerous than predicted:
Recently, people were alarmed to learn that the CDC based their masking policy on a NY Times article
Yet, you may not know that in April 2020 the Attorney General of Illinois justified locking down 12 million people based on CNN, NY Times, & Vox articles
1/7🧵
A legal challenge was brought against the state.
In return, the state argued to keep children locked at home, shut down businesses, cancel medical procedures, and let the elderly die alone.
One of their main sources to justify lockdown was a CNN article quoting Facui.

The recent Lancet paper on natural immunity is great, but let's not pretend it is new information
Many of us have said natural Immunity is strong & better than vax immunity for years & backed it up with study after study
10 vindicating Covid stories from this week with links:
-2nd vax tied to cardiac issues in students
-No Covid impact on Fetal Mortality Rate

Links at the end 🧵
5. Covid policies increased medical errors

The biggest issue I have with the call for Covid amnesty is the assertion that at the beginning of the pandemic we “just didn’t know” how harmful and pointless the restrictions would be.
We DID know, and here’s proof.
These are all articles from March & April of 2020

Too many Covid stories to put in 1 tweet this week.
So, here are the 10 big ones. Links at the end:
1⃣ Mouse booster proves ineffective
2⃣ NY Judge reinstates workers fired due to vax

Long-Covid is not the crisis some politicians and "experts" are trying to make it out to be.
Here are 10 studies showing the relative minor risk posed by long-covid.
Long-covid MUST NOT be used as a justification for more lockdowns, mandates, or restrictions. 🧵
Long-Covid: Study 1/10
No evidence of persistent viral infection, autoimmunity, or abnormal immune activation
Extensive evaluation revealed no specific cause of reported symptoms in most cases
Increased risk in women & those with anxiety disorders
Twitter censors research that goes against their approved narrative.
I was suspended and my tweets were labeled misleading for saying the Covid vax has risks.
The following thread links to each study with its summary statement.
You tell me if my tweets were misleading 🧵

There is no justification for Covid vaccine mandates at schools & colleges
The vax doesn't stop transmission & has risks; students are not endangering teachers; & the unvaxed are not overwhelming hospitals
Any leader pushing a return to remote education must answer for the resulting harm to children & families.
The damages caused by remote education are numerous and well-documented.
This thread provides 20 examples; there are, sadly, far more examples to be found. 🧵 1/11

😷 MASQUERADE 1/14 😷
Experts knew before 2020 that most masks were not effective against respiratory viruses.
Experts also knew public masking wasn't practical and could be detrimental.

We have been in an abusive relationship with our government and media for 19 months.
@justin_Hart, @dockaurG, & others have pointed this out in the past, but I want to show you it isn’t just hyperbole.

1/10 Politics & Ego or Science & Data?
Irwin Redlener has been an influential voice in closing schools, masking students, & pushing for vaccine mandates.
Unsurprisingly, Redlener has a 30 year history of partisan activism, ties to the Clintons, & a desire for media attention.
2/10 Redlener has been a key advisor to @AFTunion & Randi Weingarten.
In yesterday’s town hall with @OpenschoolsUS, Redlener seemed unable to debate research & instead excoriated “red states” & “Trump” while ironically saying this shouldn't be political.

18 months into the pandemic and it is still clear that masking children is an ineffective policy not supported by research or data.
I’ve provided 2 sources for each claim but can offer many more if needed.
I’ve also addressed Delta & recent studies at the end of this 🧵
2/14 (1) “our data indicate that children are at far greater risk of critical illness from influenza than from COVID-19.” jamanetwork.com/journals/jamap…
(2) “Children and young people remain at low risk from COVID-19 mortality” osf.io/ezdf2/
