It Won’t Stop, Until We Make It Stop
The case for new COVID restrictions depends on assumptions about the effectiveness of these restrictions and the magnitude of the risk. These assumptions do not match the facts.

Another round of COVID insanity is upon us, and the totalitarian impulse among the ruling class is getting worse.
The spike in cases is undeniable. For this, it appears several important facts have converged. The early hope for herd immunity has turned out to be a chimera. The authorities assumed herd immunity would happen through the spread of disease or immunity through the help of vaccines or both. But the Delta and now the Lambda variants have undone old assumptions. Neither vaccines, nor prior infections, appear to offer much protection from these (although vaccines may prevent severe disease, the jury is out).
We also know the lockdowns, masks, social distancing, and other high-cost measures to stop the disease did little to accomplish that end. But they did ruin our lives.
