This falls under the umbrella of what I like to call Enron accounting where the numbers used for evaluation have footnotes that apply definitions that change the entire formula. On contract pricing it takes the form of revising billable items so evaluation includes routine costs like maintenance in residual value just by moving the category the cost is recorded. This is how we end up with $900 hammers etc.. Enron accounting is lucrative even when they get caught.
These are highly prized skills in the world of lobbyists legislation and Federal contracts. These loopholes and distorted reporting are government wide and underlie system wide corruption, nice illustration tyvm.
I’m not so certain that Dr. Hughes’ post actually disproves the initial hypothesis. One would have to have more detail about the diagnosis practices in New Zealand, and more detail re: testing methods and distribution, especially following jab, in order to make that assessment.
I don’t know much about cycle threshold for PCR used in New Zealand, or if they (like the CDC recommended in the US) failed to test jabbed and unjabbed populations with the same CT. Based on US and UK practice, I might offer this hypothesis:
The inoculations actually manifest Covid in the jabbed (or greatly increase frequency) in the 10 days or so following uptake; however, prior to third round boosters, because these persons were identified as ‘unvaccinated’ up until 14 days after uptake, there can be a severe distortion in cases/hospitalizations/deaths in the ‘unvaccinated’ population.
