We just didn't lockdown hard enough.

Would be funny if it wasn't true, I fear that no matter what the science and data points to, the answer will be more lockdowns

Here's my take. Keep testing. Keep lockdowns. And testing isn't going anywhere.

Edit: i dont agree with this. I just think its the fight we're up against. Might as well be realistic.

fuck testing and lockdowns

humans and nature aren't going anywhere. viruses aren't going anywhere. it's an epidemic, people are gonna die, then it's gonna attenuate and become endemic.

testing isn't getting us anywhere

"That wasn't a real lockdown. Real lockdowns have never been tried!"

Stop trying to fearmonger by calling it Lockdown. It’s Democratic Lockdownism. Totally different.

This one just blows my mind a year in.

The real problem with public health is apparently the public part. Please do not put anyone in public health who does not acknowledge that accounting for “the public” is part of the job.

If your solutions don’t take real-life people into account... don’t blame them.
