I also agree that governments can lie in many cases. But in an emergency, I prefer to abandon the illusion of conspiracy. How can we tell if the government is lying about an emergency? Unfortunately, there is no exact way to find the answer to this question. Maybe we can only make decisions based on our own experiences, for example, I rarely get colds or flu, but in the two years of the corona pandemic, I contracted corona four times and was sick for about 20 days each time.

How do you know it’s an emergency? My experience with covid was I knew no one who died from it, and for me it was just a cold. And everything the government said was a lie, and everything they did made it worse.
The lesson for me is to ignore them sooner than I did. (I bought in for 8 months.)
BTW — they are still lying!
