Judging by comments beneath, I don't think enough people "get it"--even after Covid has come and gone--that social distancing, all by itself, is sufficient to destroy society.
Society is togetherness. Prosperity requires togetherness.
I had an epidemiologist tell me claims of lockdowns being devastating were 'exaggerated'. He's also a public health policy expert who's often interviewed on national TV here i n Canada.
I'm always hesitant to dive into the CBC comments section but at least the sane ones have high upvotes.
But there's the usual CBCovidian in the ranks. Apparently, the incoherent ineffective "vaccine" policies change because they 'follow science'. LMFAO - until it bleeds red and black blood.
Except that the lockdowns also served the globalist purpose of trying to wipe out independent business owners so to make them dependent on government. From the globalist perspective, the lockdowns were a success, and they plan to do it again under the guise of saving us from climate change.
PNK, we could have put tax deductible $5 "treatment packs" in every checkout lane in America in two weeks for five billion dollars and five billion more would have continued it as long as necessary. With a media "blitz" about treatment, dosing, side effects, interactions, YES, we could have done this. Even Comrades Cuomo & DeBlasio could have contributed to the general good. Maybe even Gestapo Gretchen?
Of course, we would have had to be smart, and less corrupt.
The CDC could have simply put out a series of PSAs saying "America, take your vitamins and wash your filthy hands" and the "pandemic" would likely have been a more serious bout of seasonal influenza.
On April 4 of 2020 I posted this as a comment on Holman Jenkins column in the Wall St Journal:
The saddest outcome of social distancing will be this lesson that looks to be unlearned. Namely that the very bricks and mortar of prosperity come from the opposite of social distancing: close social collaboration.

The response showed me he's just an asshole.
That seems to be a common attribute among the so-called "experts" these days.
Oohh...I am so curious who this is.....Dr Bogoch, is my guess.... https://www.cbc.ca/news/health/fourth-dose-covid-vaccine-canada-omicron-ba5-1.6521937

Who are "globalists"?
I've always liked globes. Hourglasses too.

So maybe we couldn't have.

Would not have even required a billion dollars.

So do tariffs enable close social collaboration?
Do walls on the Mexican border?
Do sanctions of other countries?
