Like most of you, I have been watching this board and contributing here and there over the months and have drawn great inspiration from it. And there have been many ugly things about the human race and its institutions that have been illuminated here. I don't know if it is true, but there has been discussion on this board about docs/hospitals being incentivized to avoid ivermectin and HCQ, and instead place people on ventilators... and when they die, the incentive is collected. Maybe the docs truly believe in the ventilator approach and they're interpreting the money coming through as a payment to help the hospital to fight the pandemic, so they think it's okay. And maybe some are just greedy and evil.
If the incentives are real, how do we prove it?
And, if we prove the incentives are real, then how do we identify the docs and hospitals that took the money with evil in their hearts? Tougher to prove, but if we can identify them, then we can at least make them explain themselves.
Evil SoB's tend to be good record keepers, otherwise how do they get their share of the loot? Very good chance we can reverse engineer or figure out what they did if/when we get our hands on the proper records from the proper agencies. Hospital admin are as at fault as many of the docs and quite a few nurses no doubt.
Who pays the monies for the covid death certs? FOIA effective there? Paper trail somewhere, but I know nothing of all that stuff. No clue how county/state/federal systems overlap or interface in health care.
Just spit-balling (and poorly), may not be solvable till we regain control, then the hunt is on for sure.
Some day I want to do a FOIA. I need to get off my ass and learn how.
