They pulled this switcheroo right out the gate. We’ve always counted flu death rates using IFR. Then they suddenly decided to report Covid death rate using CFR. This multiplied the death rate by at least 10x.
Now consider the likely reasoning behind such a change. We previously used the IFR because we didn’t want people panicking over misleading stats about the common flu. They switched the methodology because they wanted to create panic.
Here in Poland the problem of this winter is a flu epidemic (https://www.pap.pl/en/news/news%2C1514495%2Cnearly-300000-cases-flu-poland-one-week-december.html), after the prior "disappearance of flu" like elsewhere. But, almost no one's dying (1 person died during this week of 300,000 new infections), just like almost no one's been dying of flu in Poland ever since the killer strain pandemic in 1971 (from Asia too) when over 5,000 died. While over 119,000 in Poland died of covid in the same official stats, including 3,000 in last half year.
lol my Dad never believed me no matter the evidence I showed him like this. Way back at the peak of the government doing this. I will have to see if he will believe this article.

We also had the big tech censors who made it impossible to say how mild covid actually was

Yeah, this is the point I was going to make:
This was all intentionally misleading, from the start…
Just wait until the next time they decide to pull something like this. They’ve had the practice. They know how to go even harder next time…
Places that voted back in their incumbent “lockdown-happy” governments, or lurched to the left, are fucked…
