There is a good argument to be made for that interpretation, certainly.
The data shows that there is a real pathogen causing real illness, and that it has spread around the globe. The data also shows that the virulence of the pathogen is rather less than has been claimed, and certainly the mortality data indicates there is much less of an health crisis than the media would lead one to believe.
Using the criteria applied to the H1N1 swine flu "pandemic" in 2009, the global spread of SARS-CoV-2 technically can be deemed a pandemic under the WHO 6-stage model. The caveat for that, however, is that by the same criteria, every cycle of seasonal influenza is a pandemic as well.
This goes back to a point Sage Hana makes repeatedly on her Substack: the power of language. What do we mean when we say "pandemic"? It rather depends on who's doing the saying.
Let me rephrase that. Someone knowingly abused the pandemic emergency and used that for their own political goals. There is pandemic of obesity but we don't see anyone closing fast food's or McDonald's.
On opposite, all of these restrictions who someone publicly, willingly and front of everyone eyes claimed should protect people, lives and health had opposite effect. From beginning, they were designed not to protect the people but, and I am not afraid to say that, to willingly harm them. They were used for economical and political reasons and not for protection or improvement of health of people.
There was never really pandemic, it was only media and politicians who claimed this. Every other voice was silenced and heavily censored.

Abused both the declared pandemic and the terminology involved.
Communists always control language.
ALWAYS
It's part of authoritarianism 101. Every good tyrant aims to control language.
