They made no difference. You can't base facts on wishful thinking.

I live in a heavily lockdowned, mask wearing state and our stats are worse the Florida's. In fact we are reliably on the top 10 worst lists. Go figure, huh?

Fresh air and sunshine (or at least Vitamin D) is required for a healthy immune system.

We don't know how things would have gone there without lockdowns. In America, we have all the different states to compare.

Sweden did as well as the UK. North and South Dakota fared similarly. States that opened early did as well as those still closed.

Am I being pranked? That's exactly what grump was doing, when he decided that everything should be opened up by Easter, or before.

It did here, too. Ohio was doing really well, until Amy Acton quit, after she was harassed by those idiots with guns. She had to hire security to protect her family.

The Bill of Rights may not matter to you, but to most of us, they do.

We were talking about whether or not lockdowns worked. We didn’t even have a proper lockdown, and people were complaining. We aren’t free to kill others - or we aren’t supposed to be.

Who is killing anyone? Do you even listen to yourself?
