That’s the extreme perspective void of context and reasoning, but go ahead and run with it.

From the NY Times. You don't have to be a conspiracy theorist to question experts. The "bold" is from the story.
Early in the pandemic, many health experts — in the U.S. and around the world — decided that the public could not be trusted to hear the truth about masks. Instead, the experts spread a misleading message, discouraging the use of masks. |
Their motivation was mostly good. It sprung from a concern that people would rush to buy high-grade medical masks, leaving too few for doctors and nurses. The experts were also unsure how much ordinary masks would help. |
But the message was still a mistake. |
It confused people. (If masks weren’t effective, why did doctors and nurses need them?) It delayed the widespread use of masks (even though there was good reason to believe they could help). And it damaged the credibility of public health experts. |
“When people feel as though they may not be getting the full truth from the authorities, snake-oil sellers and price gougers have an easier time,” the sociologist Zeynep Tufekci wrote early last year. |
Now a version of the mask story is repeating itself — this time involving the vaccines. Once again, the experts don’t seem to trust the public to hear the full truth. |
Black Widows, killer of babies. HC took it even further. Killing babies before birth and then using and selling livers and hearts for profit. Not sure it's photo shopped or not but she was pure evil!!!
Hillary Clinton receives award named for famed eugenicist
Receiving the award is a “great privilege,” Clinton said after the presentation. “I admire Margaret Sanger enormously, her courage, her tenacity, her vision…. I am really in awe of her,” Clinton said.

I laughed at the run on toilet paper... up until the day I went to the store to get toilet paper. So I do take the threat they were looking to prevent as a legitimate concern. And taking 'extraordinary' measures to make sure they had enough masks... by prioritizing healthcare workers with the healthcare equipment... seems like common sense.
What concerns me is rather then be honest with people, and ask them to be willing to volunteer to give up masks for the greater good that leaders / media felt they had to lie. Yeah the politicians suck, but it's also true that public service and working for the greater good is no longer an idea that sells in America.
Americans have become a people who feels they owe nothing, and yet are somehow owed everything.
The flip side of that is the meritocracy: a ruling class (whether politician, health expert, media, etc) that feels it is entitled to rule, that it is entitled to pass on those benefits to their children, and therefore looks down on everyone else. As they say, it takes 2 to tango and the lie had its origins in both.

Here's a load of bad news including how CA takes care of money.
Billions Lost In Fraudulent EDD Payments; Overseas Crime Syndicates Cash In
SAN FRANCISCO — While millions of Californians are battling each day to put food on the table amid the idled COVID-19 economy, payments from the state earmarked to help them have been ripped off to the tune of nearly $10 billion, according to a security firm hired to investigate the fraud. KPIX 5 has been among the leaders in investigating the EDD payment crisis. Blake Hall, founder and CEO of ID.me told the Los Angeles Times, that California may have paid out nearly $10 billion in phony coronavirus unemployment claims — more than double the previous estimate. Some of that money has gone to organized crime in Russia, China and other countries. At least 10% of claims submitted to the state Employment Development Department before controls were installed in October may have been fraudulent. Read More/a>

In general, I'd say the CO news is pretty good. I'm pleased to see some clear thinking leadership in Governor Polis' quote, "There's no excuse not to protect as many 70 and up residents as possible a week or two earlier." However, the dichotomy of "Team Fear Santa Clara County" vs. rational thinking is made clear when you consider the reactions to a possible delay in newly delivered doses because the reserve for the second shot is being used to get people the first shot sooner.
From SC County: “We learned this morning that no such stockpile exists. This throws into chaos expectations around vaccine delivery,” said Santa Clara County’s Chief Counsel James Williams.
From CO Governor Polis: People who are due for their second dose can receive it as scheduled, Polis said. If unexpected delays in vaccine supplies come later, hospitals can reduce their first doses to ensure everyone gets a second dose on time, the letter said.

Santa Clara County Fears ‘Chaos’ as Vaccination Supplies Dwindle
SAN JOSE — Santa Clara County public health officials on Friday said they’re alarmed by reports the federal government has depleted its stockpile of COVID-19 vaccine — a reserve that was meant to provide a steady supply of the vaccine for the prescribed second dose. “We learned this morning that no such stockpile exists. This throws into chaos expectations around vaccine delivery,” said Santa Clara County’s Chief Counsel James Williams. Santa Clara County has significantly ramped up its distribution efforts, administering an estimated 6,000 shots a day and 30,000 shots per week. But that system was dependent on regular new shipments of the vaccine. Without those doses, the county would quickly exhaust its available supply.

About 40,000 older Coloradans will get their first COVID-19 shot a few weeks earlier than initially planned after the state on Monday ordered providers to stop holding back second doses.
In a letter sent to vaccine providers, Gov. Jared Polis directed hospitals and others to stop holding back doses for current patients’ second shots. Both the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines require two doses, spaced three or four weeks apart, respectively.
Polis estimated that the doses currently held in reserve for future weeks will allow about 40,000 more people to get vaccinated this week. The state expects about 83,000 doses to arrive this week, meaning more than 120,000 people can get their first shot, he said.
People who are due for their second dose can receive it as scheduled, Polis said. If unexpected delays in vaccine supplies come later, hospitals can reduce their first doses to ensure everyone gets a second dose on time, the letter said.
The plan essentially shifts the 40,000 people forward a few weeks, because the second doses that had been held in reserve will have to be taken out of shipments in upcoming weeks. The announcement Monday doesn’t change the timeline of having 70% of people who are 70 and older vaccinated by the end of February, the governor said.
“We will apply the second doses in the week they’re needed,” Polis said in an interview with The Denver Post. “There’s no excuse not to protect as many 70 and up (residents) as possible a week or two earlier.”
