Watched Professor of Psychiatry, CEO of the think tank Wellesley Institute Kwame McKenzie on The Agenda, public programming television in Toronto last evening telling the truth about Covid and Long Covid. Sitting beside him was Dr. Isaac Bogoch Infectious disease specialist who's been claiming on social media and tv news that we can't do anything because 'Covid is here to stay" https://twitter.com/user/status/1841615649153437718

I laughed when I saw it and wondered if it was worth posting here Every time I saw this dude when he was doing interviews on TV, he only got softball questions and could basically say whatever he wanted. This was an educational program and he was just not prepared for an actual substantial discussion with people who don't just repeat what they're told to. Most of the time I saw him was on CBC national programs. So it's not ideal that all he ever has is either total softball questions or time to spew whatever disinformation he wants. Rampant disinformation sourced from the government, experts and authoritative bodies are signs of a decaying society. And since it's happening everywhere, I guess we can talk about a decaying civilization.
Full programme here. It was refreshing to see at least two of three doctors talking about duty of care, that infections are bad and best to avoid and that vulnerable patients ought to be protected. https://www.tvo.org/video/has-everyone-forgotten-about-covid
