Covid for me was the definitive eye-opener.
What purpose did the tests serve? To identify a "case", or to persuade you that you were (OMG!) infected with consequences too awful to contemplate?
Search as I might, I could not find any published information about the accuracy of the test. Cue "What if it isn't very accurate?" ... "What if it's actually a psy-op and will give you false positives galore - who's to know?"
"They wouldn't do that ... would they?"
So I looked at the stats - official stats - showing that the deaths were largely among the old with comorbidities, at around their expected lifespan ... and deaths overall were staying within normal statistical expectation ... until 2021 broke alongside the quaxxine campaigns.
"Yes, they do seem to be doing that".
And now for my personal anecdote that proves nothing but is all of a piece ...
Having fallen down the stairs a few years ago (2015) and been carted off (against my better judgement, it now seems) to spend a very unwelcome sleepless night in A&E "for my safety", that event kicked off a cascade of tests and investigations, including an MRI scan of my head, all designed to prove that I was about to die of something.
As luck would have it, they didn't find anything that would have caused my accident, but "coincidentally" they found a "nodule" that "shouldn't have been there". "Nothing to worry about, just come back in a year for another MRI to see if it's growing". This I did for several years, Each time they would cluster around the monitor and measure this "nodule" on screen, a nodule that I over their shoulders could never identify from amongst its surroundings. Well, they were probably more practised at this than I.
Then one year, it was "really time to operate now, before it grows any bigger". So I asked for a written risk assessment, which frankly wasn't reassuring, featuring a high probability of resulting facial paralysis ... So I demurred for another year.
What a difference a year makes! "No need to operate yet, it's fine for now".
Hang on, last year it was "Let's go, pass me the scalpels!". Staff continuity didn't seem to be their strong point.
Then Covid arrived. I drew the only sensible conclusion and cancelled all further investigation.
And 5 years later here I still am, nodule or no nodule, still upright and intact, but with a healthy disrespect for all matters NHS. Well not quite all - I've been picked up as a roadside casualty and had minor abrasions patched up, something that they are seemingly good at, but I declined their offer to admit me overnight "to be safe", much preferring to enjoy my safety in the familiar surroundings of home.
There is more, but I won't digress further, beyond saying that I got off very lightly.
Some do not. Caveat emptor - especially when it's "free at the point of use" (but hideously expensive at the point of taxation).
