That's right. So I, I, go back and show the CDC created these guidebooks or playbooks for how to handle a pandemic. And there were a series of them, but two of them in particular were very, very important. One of them came out in 2007, and then there was a revision in 2017. These books were mentioned by officials from the CDC at the beginning of the pandemic.

So there's no ambiguity that these were very important and influential. These are the guidebook on here's what you do when a pandemic comes. And One of the astonishing things about these books is they were built on these models. And people hear the word model and they might not know what that means. A study is something that actually happened. A model is a prediction.

It's, you know, you see a graph where the lines are going to do this over time. It's based on various inputs. What in the... the researchers get to decide whatever inputs they want go in. So you plug the things in and then out comes your model saying whatever it is you want it to say. If you don't like what it says, well, you'll just change the inputs until they show what you want it to show.

One of the people who was involved in creating some of the models in these guidebooks by the CDC, his daughter did a science experiment in school where she talked about it was supposed to simulate the flow of our transmission of a disease within a school. And like all this stuff was made up.

Like, and I go through details showing how, and even beyond her, this guy's daughter, even beyond Robert Glass, beyond her, his daughter, were like, More August people at places like Imperial College of London and IHME, these like very, very esteemed institutions, public health institutions, their models were deeply flawed.

And because I'm a crazy person, I actually go in and read all of the models and I'm reading the supplement, you know, 35 pages in and tiny print. And one of the things I found was they had had this figure, something like 35 percent of transmission. They thought something to that effect was coming from schools. I'm like, where did this number come from? So I look through. There's a citation.

I'm like, oh, that's interesting. Then that citation goes to another citation. You go eight layers deep and there in the supplement, it says this number was chosen arbitrarily. Oh, my gosh. So people need to understand. Remember at the beginning of the pandemic, Megan, they had the flatten the curve meme. Everyone, they show if everyone just follows our orders, then it'll go down.

And then you don't have to worry about the hospitals being overwhelmed. And they had all these models saying two million people will die within the next X number of months if you don't do exactly what we're told. And they show you the graph. So a regular person, oh, my God, look what happens with the cases if we don't listen. But if we follow directions, then this will happen.
