    You are welcome to promote policy that conflicts with science. You do so routinely. I disagree with all policy that goes against known science. Public health policy should ALWAYS be based on science. Full stop.

    Lying is counterproductive. As demonstrated by the original anti masker, A. Fauci.

    OK, you aren't even trying to listen anymore.

    As repeatedly pointed out, good quality masks were NOT available. CDC and others had NO CHOICE but to go with recommending masks, even if not the best quality. This is a CLEAR example of the tradeoff between science and the possible.

    And, again. Reducing accidents is something that takes a LONG TIME TO FIX!! It can mean new training regimes, new devices, changes in staffing levels and all sorts of other changes, because these accidents do not have one single cause.

    The rest of your post shows similar failures as well as total refusal to read. Sorry. I'm no longer interested in reading your posts.

    LOL. I post evidence showing masks were available in massive quantities and manufacturers were going broke because the CDC wouldn’t allow sales. I cited the New York Times as well as manufacturers themselves. It is a simple irrefutable fact that N95 masks were in oversupply in 2021 and the CDC activity withheld them from the public. There is massive amounts of evidence for my claim. You can not supply anything but opinions for yours.

    I’ve documented every claim in my posts. I’ve cited dozens of peer reviewed studies in my links above showing mitigations like diet and sleep behaviors can protect from infection and severe cases of Covid. Yet the CDC never informed people of these cheap, easy, effective mitigations. That’s just a fact.

    Everything I post is verifiably true. You have posted nothing but unsubstantiated opinions and lies of the CDC you repeat. You can not cite ANY evidence their opinions or yours are true or correct.

    I live in a world where evidence produced through application of the scientific method matters. You don’t. It’s that simple. I post things based on science we can read and discuss. You post completely unsubstantiated biased opinions and refuse to even read anything that conflicts with your biases.

    The failure to read is demonstrated by you, not me. I’ve read your unsubstantiated opinions and asked you to back them with evidence. You can’t because none exists. I’ve read untold numbers of peer reviewed studies and shared many with you. You won’t read them or even the pull quotes I provided.

    I accept the concession that your posts cannot be supported by evidence. Thanks for demonstrating the bankruptcy of appeal to authority fallacy. Your posts have been textbook perfect in that regard.
