and shutting the schools was just criminal.

In Jan 2020 "SAGE" said the risk from covid was "VERY LOW" ... note, not just "LOW" but "VERY .. low". Despite the fact that people were already talking about it spreading and the Chinese, with one of the most controlled societies on the planet, were not able to contain it and it was causing deaths, SAGE was saying the risk was "VERY LOW".

In February, after the first cases appeared in the UK SAGE said track and trace would stop it
(although there is now a lot of evidence it was present long before, and the first cases only appeared when they started using the supposed "test" ... which were highly dubious)

So, the reality is that SAGE, a bunch of largely left-wing academics ... the types that people vote on to these committees as they are a liability for real research ... were telling government and the media to be complacent, nothing to worry about, no need to prepare, because it was "VERY LOW risk and easily containable".

In March, presumably because it had been spreading for months, unnoticed by the medics, because it was largely benign, except in the elderly and those with severe conditions ... so like flu. In March, they rolled out more and more tests, and the more they tested, the more they found of it, and the more demand for more testing there was.

To give an idea, the rate at which people were being found, was increasing by 8fold per week. Whereas the predicted rate of increase using the normal models was about 2-3 fold per week. The reality (if you work out how long it takes for illness to appear after infection), is that the epidemic was largely over, before they implemented lockup. So, all lockup did, was to prevent the epidemic ending naturally ... leaving a lot of people who hadn't had covid, and so making a second wave much more likely.

And then Big Pharma saw the forced lockup as a way of forcing the government to spend huge amounts of money on an untried, dangerous treatment. And, the rest is history.

Could it happen again? Yes. The same people are still running the ship, the same profit motive is still in place to force a lockup. The media are still complacently spreading the same BS. And most of the gullible sheep, are still just as gullible as ever, and would willingly lock themselves in their own cellar if the BBC told them to do it.
