I remember just thinking when they would show data as justification early on, it all just felt so made up and intangible. I spent a year early in my career as essentially as the master of executive reports for a big project at a mega-corp. It all felt like that. Data is manipulated and twisted to present the picture you want them to see. It's not necessarily lying but presenting exactly the truths you want to emphasize and putting the others under the rug.
I knew too many people that may be "based" (hate the term really) that thought it would just be two weeks and couldn't see that it was all fed by BS and wasn't going to go away. I guess I just haven't really ever trusted the government either.
When Governor Sununu of the State of New Hampshire declared a State of Emergency, he used State epidemiologist Ben Chan's recommendations as justification. If you took the time to look at Chan's data, it was literally re-posted from Imperial College London, and that turd weasel Neil Ferguson's work.
Neil Ferguson went on of course to be discredited for reasons entirely unrelated to him being Earth's Worst Scientist. But even at the time, it was obvious that Imperial College London's work was complete garbage. And here were State-level restrictions, and sweeping Executive powers being granted, using their trash "science" as justification.
The academic/administrative/media class has got to collapse. They're a threat to us all.

I remember thinking when it was proven that Fergusson's data was false that "okay, this will be over soon."
Silly me.
