No, Lockdowns Do Not Foster Creative Destruction
“When recovery from the effects of lockdowns, stay-at-home orders, and other draconian measures finally comes, it will be in spite of, not with the help of––and certainly not because of––county, state, and Federal government measures.” ~ Peter C. Earle

Two Years to Stop the Spread: Some Countries will Close Borders until at least 2022
“Still, many American ‘public health experts’ have urged legislators to adopt the Australia and New Zealand rights-restricting model for ‘stopping the spread.’ Dr. Anthony Fauci, the long time government health bureaucrat, has applauded Australia and New Zealand, claiming they have ‘done quite well’ in their draconian policy response to COVID-19.” ~ Jordan Schachtel

Too Many Experts, Too Little Knowledge
“The kind of information people acquire in their myriad interactions with others is often undervalued as a means of preventative behavior.

What Does It Mean for a Virus to Become ‘Endemic?’
“The sooner we recognize Covid as endemic, the sooner we can overcome this unfettered hysteria.

All Hail the Reopening!
“Will they admit error and apologize? That will take longer if it happens at all. At this point, right now, other things matter more. The priority must be to emancipate us from bad science and destructive policy so we can put our lives back together again. ” ~ Jeffrey Tucker

Invidious Comparisons
“Let’s stop comparing Covid deaths to 9/11 deaths, to death tolls from hypothetical jetliner crashes, to Vietnam or World War I casualties, or to other non-pathogen-related calamities.
