Two stories that discuss the topic:

2/4/2021 Why ARE COVID cases plummeting? New infections have fallen 44% in the US and 30% globally in the past 3 weeks but experts say vaccine is NOT the main driver because only 8% of Americans and 13% people worldwide have received their first dose

2/5/2021 COVID's deadliest day: More than 5,000 died on Thursday as fatalities remain stubbornly high after holiday surge - but experts say they are baffled by 50% drop in new infections with just 8.7% of US vaccinated and NO herd immunity

Here are some of the "rules" that changed right after the inauguration:

My statement:

All of these were considered "dissenting views" for the greater part of the year on social platforms and in every day media. Many were banned/censored/attacked  and discredited if they tried to discuss these ideas.

My questions:

How many died because HCQ was prohibited for a period of time here and not used? (It was used elsewhere.)

How over inflated were the COVID numbers because the dissenting view on high cycle PCR tests was suppressed (censored)?

Why did this all happen after the inauguration? (My Answer: Politics.)

My final thoughts:

Think about the cost of silencing a dissenting view (censorship) and allowing only 1 aspect of thought to permeate the airwaves (propaganda).
