On the contrary: his points were exactly correct. We're dealing with extremely biased estimators due to the cost and supply chain for the Covid virus test which is basically only given to very sick people, radically biasing the estimator high. At the very least, the estimator is extremely uncertain, and anyone who works with numbers should be acutely aware of this.
We're also dealing with people who completely forgot how hysterical people were over the swine flu, SARS, MERS and so on, which ultimately turned out to be nothingburgers. And a completely broken mass media system where pretty much all sources of news are about as reliable as the National Enquirer, and significantly more politically biased.
Flagging this was foolish and a further contribution to the mass hysteria.
