Basic assumptions used for making decisions always need to be checked and re-checked. We assumed that the healthcare bureaucrats, University Presidents and Administrators, and most doctors were motivated to save lives and keep people healthy. I think that was the basic mistake, not the organizational complexities you mention, and the domains (complex, chaotic, complicated, etc) you list. You raise the question: "And how many people DID die because of their stupidity, arrogance and ignorance?" Again, you're assuming they were stupid, arrogant, and ignorant. If, however, you assume that they were intelligent and knew exactly what they were doing, and the objective was not to save lives or keep people healthy, then all the pieces of the puzzle fall into place. Ignoring the safety signals was not poor practice, or a mistake. That's the kind of excuse we will be hearing more and more, especially from those who want Amnesty. Ignoring safety signals, denying early and appropriate treatments, giving untested "vaccines" with new technology to demographics who were not in danger from serious COVID-19 effects, are all actions that mesh with the objectives of harming and killing people rather than saving lives.
Initially, I believed mistakes were being made and data were being overlooked by the decision-makers. However, as more data poured in, and the decisions did not change, it became clear the objectives of the decision-makers were far more sinister than I believed initially. I did not come to this realization early; it took me about a year before I could accept it. For me, the most egregious behavior came from the University Presidents who mandated the shots for students of child-bearing age who had no need for such "vaccines".
What we all missed was the radical change in objectives of those who we entrusted with our lives and the lives of our loved ones. The tragedy is how few people have come to recognize this shift after three years of continuing disaster.
Do you see a problem on the horizon with the DEI czars in place at every institute of higher learning, including our medical schools, ferreting out the higher scoring kiddos who might not have the correct intersectionality to fit into the diversity mold that is desired at these schools? There are more and more medical schools tossing out the MCAT as an admission requisite. I fear this will lower the common denominator and produce mediocre scientists and physicians. And about morality: Can a society hell bent on killing children in the womb ever be moral or ethical? It pains me to think of it but I am 77 years old and probably will not live to see the full extent of the damage of what is happening in our society. I fear for my grandchildren, however, and this is why I will fight this decay until I die. For the children. Matthew 18:6
Heard your interview with Dr Peter McCullough...amazing!! You nailed it! And why is it that so few are seeing the complicit nature of organized medicine....AMA, AAP, ACOG, etc and why their leadership just goes along with the narrative? You kind of said it in your interview...the enormous amount of money in grant funding that the 300+ medical schools receive (average $30-$40M/year) so they must go along and not jeopardize the grant funding that is largely directly or indirectly administered by Fauci through NIAID/HIH, Gates Foundation, and Welcome Foundation in UK. But, it just seems so hard to accept that ALL these individuals physicians playing some role, big or small, are largely passive and quiet. Afraid to be fired? That likely plays a role as well. Thank you for your honesty, integrity, and critical thinking propelling your willingness to speak truth!!

A brilliant post that helps in so many complex situations. Thanks for giving me a way to clarity!
