The joys of living in a college town (Gainesville, FL - University of Florida). Our positive tests had settled from a summer plateau of 80 to around 40-50, then the students arrived (classes started 8/31):

We started out with Sweden's plan; Sweden's plan was accepted as THE WAY to deal with pandemics before March.

We were told that we needed to "pause" to make sure we had enough hospital capacity.

1/5
6 months later, we have plenty of hospital capacity and an untold number of people dying from lack of medical care for non-COVID issues.

Nobody in the U.S. died from COVID because of a lack of hospital capacity, but plenty are dying because fear kept them from care.

2/5
The lockdowns, the school closures, the masks have secondary effects that we will be discovering for decades to come.

There is plenty of evidence that lockdowns delay deaths but don't save lives in the long run. In fact, they cost lives from other causes.

It appears the panic pushers are down to one last scare tactic: long-term effects (there is simply no longer any concern that COVID will grow exponentially and overwhelm hospitals or lead to piles of bodies).

1/5
If we're going to hold normal life hostage to long-term effects, there are many diseases with much greater prevalence and consequences.

Diabetes, for example. Life-long effects. Should we eliminate that before resuming normal life?

2/5
Not to mention car accidents. Lots of potential long-term effects from amputations, etc. Should we eliminate car accidents before resuming normal life?

How low should medical/accident risks be before we're allowed to decide for ourselves on our level of risk?

Len and I are finally watching Downton Abbey. When Spanish Flu hits the house, it's very interesting that nobody panics. They're concerned about those who are sick, yes, but everyone stands around the bed of the sick person, visitors are welcomed, etc.

1/7
This doesn't really say anything about the mindset in 1918 because it's fiction; what it tells us is that the writers didn't see any reason for the characters to panic, although it was well known at the time that many were dying.

And no masks!

2/7
I suspect those same writers are now huddled in their homes, begging everyone to stay home and wear masks.

What's the difference? I'm not even talking about motives... the difference is that media and social media went all in on making us afraid.
