You don't need any data when dealing with the government or any private sector regulated by government to see when somethings not right precisely because you cant trust their data. What you can trust is that humans act in their own self interests and for pharmaceutical executives that means selling their products regardless of effectiveness or risk and minimizing liability. For government that means acquiring what's needed to get reelected to stay in power so you have more years to monetize your position via political favors.

When playing poker you dont play the cards, you play the player. Same is how you deal with the Federal Government leaders and employees. You know the majority are not going to act ethically so watch what they do, how they respond. The initial red flags for covid for everyone should have been how hard they marketed covid fear to the public. There's no way we could have known initially that they were lying about its lethality but within 2-4 weeks it should have been obvious to most that what they were selling us was not matching up with our own experiences. It was 6 months before I indirectly knew anyone who got covid. The way they were marketing it everyone should have directly known several people who got covid within the first 30 days.

Its not as if pre covid our Federal government had a reputation for being truthful and reliable so why did so many just believe the government without questioning it?
