I'm reading this in mid-2023, and wow did you nail this! It is difficult to think about how a small group of public health officials was allowed to "dictate" the Covid narrative.

Thanks for the kind words, Sharrylou. I'm very sorry to read your report and it is deeply concerning. I do believe more people are waking up and the tide will turn in 2022.

I appreciate the supportive note. Thank you!
Unfortunately, like most people, economists cheered for the vaccines. They ignored what they should have known and been shouting about.

Thank you, Diane. Indeed, 2022 is a pivotal year and more people are ready to explore and question.
Hearts are essential. On a fundamental level we are all connected and there is a deep knowing of that truth.
