Here take this, it’s good for you. Trust us. But don’t do your own research on it. Common sense is very bad for your health.

And dont' ask why as a perfectly healthy sub 60 year old with absolutely zero risk of dying from the CCP virus NEEDS to take this.

It was always the MANDATES that were the issue.

Trump mandated a lot of things with regard to masks, cruises, and nursing homes.

He didn't have a vaccine to mandate... but his record makes it clear he would have

Poor communication and a refusal to adapt to evolving scientific evidence led to unnecessary school closures and the restriction of outdoor activity during the Covid outbreak, contributing to the “pandemic chaos” that plagued the country for more than two years, a scathing report published Monday revealed.

The report, “Pandemic lessons for the 2024 presidential election,” was published in the British Medical Journal and draws on a breadth of scientific studies to assess the policy failures that led to significantly higher death rates in the U.S. than in other developed countries.

“During the devastating global covid-19 pandemic, one nation stood out: the United States saw ‘eye wateringly high’ death rates compared with its peer nations. The 1.16 million Americans killed by covid-19 represent 16% of global deaths in a nation with 4% of the world’s population,” wrote the authors, Duke University professor Gavin Yamey and Drexel University professor Ana Roux.

Roux and Yamey blame poor communication at the federal level, as well as structural factors inherent to the American system of government, for many of the policy failures, and specifically call out “overreach” at the state level for compounding the hardship of the pandemic.

“The absence of timely evidence and delayed or incomplete communication of what was known also led to overreach, which itself had harmful consequences,” Roux and Yamey write. “For example, even after studies had shown that fomite transmission was rare and transmission outdoors was much less common than indoors, some municipalities and states kept parks, playgrounds, and beaches closed. Even after research had shown that schools could be reopened safely with basic public health measures, too many jurisdictions kept teaching online only.”

This was obvious to most.

Some wished death upon park goers. Some thought more testing was needed. Some will read this and never own up to how wrong they were (BL).

A shame as a lot can be learned from such mismanagement

^ Maybe the saddest part of it all.

Does anyone have a sliver of confidence that the next pandemic would go any better than the last one did?

That ship sailed the minute we chose to nominate the person who claims "we did everything right"

As a small subgroup exists in this very forum that can be tested... and the answer is no. Most of the folks that got ALL OF COVID completely wrong show zero.... ZERO evidence of evaluation of their position, information consumption, etc... on the topic. Zero admittance to the facts that they got it all wrong, and continued to do so after all was shown to be common sense.

I mean - It was obviously a PR stunt from the beginning to hide from the fact that as late is third quarter 2021 RDS was pushing Vaxs like the rest of them. His record was very good on COVID but his cult doesn't understand he was mostly like everyone else that wasn't a Democrat.

The vaccines DID in fact help at risk people (as I said from the very beginning). The only issues were the mandates which RDS kind of supported through shame in mid 2021.

The cult will stay away from this obviously because of how stupid it makes them look - As usual.

[cajunrevenge]

That pesky court of law strikes again.

[thethe]

I mean wow this report is just sad - Nothing new at all.

Complete bluster and ultimately embarrassing to RDS. They better come out with something other than this.

ACCOUNTABILITY! If anything this report almost helps the argument that lockdowns had slight merit (while Trump was in office with no vaccine).

[thethe]

For those who have forgotten reality and were warped by the DeSimp influencers who make RDS out to be a GOD.

[sturg33]

Hahahaha this cultist is so desperate to find any weakness from RDS.

I'm STILL waiting for that list of governors you promised us

[thethe]

Lockdowns were reasonable before the vaccine. Not sure I agree with that but I guess that’s RDS position now.

Woof.

[sturg33]

LOL

The jealousy is too rich. Lockdown Don 2024!
