“Good people on both sides” seems to be the mantra of our premier as though there were two equal positions here. There are not. She uses the word, “narrative” as though epidemiological science is akin to the politics of how to respond to tariffs. It is not. From vaccines to masks, we have data. It’s not a narrative. It’s a scientific conclusion and this report is a scientific failure.
I think these people really do believe that there was a conspiracy to... punish people? I don't know. Unfortunately, they couldn't even be arsed to follow their own data so I'm not sure how they really expect anyone else to bother.
Well said. I do feel for Ms. Smith though. It is apparent that she is beholden to a higher power. Not a supernatural being, or the electorate - as she should be, but a specific element of her political party that is founded in conspiracy certainties, junk science, misapplied Christian fundamentalism, etcetera. She’s working so hard to make their crazy sound normal and hold on to her position. It must be mentally and emotionally exhausting.
I don't disagree -- if you haven't seen her news spot from that republican-founded farce "News Max", you definitely get the impression that she's not comfortable. She's willing to go pretty far into the conspiracy space but I think even that interview caused her brain to fire off too many responses that she had to stop from being voiced. With that being said, I can now only think that if she does know what she's doing is wrong, she no longer cares, and if she doesn't, she never will.
By any scientific measure, Smith is a dangerous and delusional lunatic. Proveable with data, peer review supported, and validated through repeated testing.

You know it can't hear you right? Good, good, just a wellness check.
