Well, in regard to your opening point, anything that CAN be used for surveillance WILL be used for surveillance.

That “1-2%” is FAR too high of an estimate.

Although regional numbers vary of course, in my state the death rate by county has averaged between 0.0004 and 0.0032 percent.

Or, in decimal notation, 0.000004-0.000032

These numbers were calculated based on the Covid data repository maintained by the New York Times (https://github.com/nytimes/covid-19-data) and US Census data (http://www.census.gov/).

Despite being a medical doctor, this disappoints me a great deal.

This sort of authoritarian non-discussion is exactly what's caused vaccine resistance to become an "activist movement" in the first place.

Some tinfoil-hat part of me wonders if that's actually the plan...

I will be more than happy to explain to the manager's face why I do not appreciate being scammed.
