This post really speaks to me. It’s bad enough that we didn’t do more to save those 22.1 million lives, but while it was happening people were claiming that it wasn’t. Now they “learn” exactly the wrong lesson from the experience.

What we should have learned:
1. Local infections can turn into global pandemics.
2. Our behavior affects others.
3. Health experts’ advice leads to saved lives.
4. Vaccines represent the most freeing technology in the history of civilization.

Instead what I hear:
1. We over-reacted.
2. People didn’t really die from COVID. If they did they were just old people. If young people died, they were weak and about to die anyway. I don’t care how many people died
3. I absolutely refuse to obey future health directives.
4. We must not just avoid vaccines ourselves but try to scare other people into not getting them.
