> There is still considerable debate if those measures were actually effective.

Not really. I agree with the thrust of your post but there is definitely no considerable debate being had on this topic, because Near-Zero COVID is the only acceptable policy, and saving lives at any cost along with it.



If you're the Chinese Communist party, that's it.

I'm not willing to ruin my life on the chance some 90 years old may catch the flu and die. If they're worried about COVID they can isolate.


I happen to agree with you. Unfortunately, that debate isn't allowed to happen in the US. Or most modern countries.


Not sure what you mean here. In the U.S. there has been considerable debate, vaccines are free, safe and available same day. Finally we have given up on almost all safety measures as long as the healthcare system can handle the load.

Can you be specific in the change you want or which debate isn’t allowed?
