On March 4, I had a lot of fun giving a lecture to your -superior about my research into the failure of the cascade expert (not -gave version here). You can find a video of the conversation about my Youtube -channel . Thanks to Dr. Joshua K. Bedi for Hosting and for the Wisconsin Institute for Citizenship and Civil Dialogue for sponsoring the event.

In the conversation I discuss how the decision asked in the pandemic to reserve COVID-19 tests only hospital matters, led to the failure of expert experts. However, I did not have failed to bring that story to his conclusion, so I fair here.
By limiting tests to hospitals, there was an upward bias in the results, which makes Covid-19 seem much more fatal than it actually was. These results were introduced in models such as the now notorious Imperial College London model, which led to predictions in the millions for a period of months. This in turn, fed in the story of Lockdowns. Even then more and more evidence arose that the virus was not as deadly as ever thought and that the lockdowns actually contributed to the spread, that poor policy remained.
