Covid: Who Was Right?

After three years of Covid-19, what lessons can we learn? Did lockdowns work? What about closing schools? What countries did best?

John Stossel says it turns out that America’s lockdowns did not work. Even though the media praised New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo for an “amazing job,” his state ended up with more deaths than “irresponsible” Florida. Meanwhile, some countries, like Australia, imposed brutal lockdowns.

“My producer crunched the numbers at MaximumTruth.Substack.com and found that lockdowns did save some lives,” Stossel says. “But they weren’t worth it.” Here’s his report.

Fauci Criticized For Flip-Flop

Dr. Anthony Fauci’s flip-flop on school closings has drawn some sharp criticism from the GOP, the most vocal from Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul. Fauci, who adamantly called for school closings six months ago despite evidence to the contrary, now says children should be let into the classroom, but keep all bars closed.

Paul pointed out that the indecisive nature of Fauci’s flip-flop illustrates the danger in centralizing power and decision-making in one person in Washington. “When one person is so wrong, it has grave effects for millions of school children,” Paul says. He added that the evidence has been clear for six months that schools do not lead to a surge and that kids are poor transmitters of the coronavirus.

Paul joins Fox News anchor Sandra Smith to discuss Fauci’s flip-flop and gives his take on the ineffectiveness of wearing masks.
