Agreed, no one has been right. It is a novel virus and nothing was known about it 6 months ago. But I'm still going to at least defer to the experts opinions and at least listen to what they have to say instead of completely dismissing them instead of policiticians (on either side) or keyboard virologists.
As for moving forward, I'm in the same boat as you, people need to make their own decisions.
Ok, but respectfully......I also deferred to the experts and have been unimpressed with their results.
So, what's next? At what point do we decide ourselves what is expert opinion and hypothesis?
To your second point: will we ever be allowed to make our own decisions? If not, are you ok with that?

But I guess if we wouldn't have tested, we would never know about the 3.3+ million confirmed cases the have shown up since then.
The experts have openly admitted they are learning as they go, with it being a novel virus and all that should be expected. They have missed the mark plenty, but they aren't afraid to admit that and adjust their thinking as new information becomes available. Kind of like they are following the whole science process. Fauci has also been clear he's not giving economic advice, his opinions come from the public health perspective and those in charge need to weigh their decision making with other factors.
So the 'science and medical experts' that we're all supposed to trust have been mostly wrong the whole time then, including Fauci.....
Where do we stop trusting the experts and when? They've been wrong on so many things.
That's what this is and has been all about. Bad 'science and medical expertise'.......and politics.
The forecasting and models by literally every health organization have been statiscally and tragically off. There have been constantly evolving opinions by the general public, and.....wait for it.....'medical experts and scientists'. They don't all agree on this just like we don't.
However, fact is, we just don't hear about those differing 'medical experts and scientists' opinions because they are filtered and diluted out by mainstream and social media because it doesn't fit a narrative.
At some point, we just have to decide what's best for us individually. If someone wants to lock themselves in quarantine and wear a mask everywhere they go, have a blast.
But if I choose not to do that, there should be reciprocity. We all know that hasn't and won't happen.
The data since the start of all this has never been empirical. If I die of a heart attack tomorrow and test positive for COVID-19, I go down in the stats as COVID-19. That's what they're doing.
Honest question: why don't we have vaccines for the Influenza strains yet? How long has it been around and why haven't we solved that yet? It kills thousands of Americans every year. The response will be because there are way too many strains and it morphs so often so when you get your flu shot in the fall, it really only covers 10-20% of flu strains.
The novel coronavirus will do the same thing, I promise.
Yet now we can't get back to 'normal' until a vaccine is found......
....or until Trump loses in November. At which point we will be back to 'normal'.

Well, there you go with facts. That's not going to sit well with this lot. I know UND had a real crappy history department, but this has been embarrassing to say the least. Anyone who actually believes that the Civil War wasn't about slavery isn't worth the time or effort for any debate. They are deranged.
I've been reading this thread and laughing all the way through it. For a bunch of hockey fans, you make horrible pubic health officials. Wear your damn masks and shut up. My God, you act like someone is pinning the Star of David on your clothes. Get over yourselves. You're not losing your "liberty" or "freedom". You're only losing your narcissism.

Also just as an aside, you really can't spend 2 days lambasting "losers" and "participation trophies" and then defend statues to Confederate generals. Those statues are the ultimate in participation trophies.

Please spare me your sanctimony.
Just in the last two weeks, Trump has falsely accused a media correspondent who was critical of him of murdering a woman and falsely accused a 75 year old man of being a member of Antifa and using his cell phone to jam police equipment. In the case of the 75 year old, the man is currently recovering from a nearly fatal head injury and is now experiencing significant harassment and death threats because the President of the United States used his considerable platform to slander the man.
Let's not forget that Trump's rise in political prominence began with him slandering the previous president with the racist smear that he wasn't a U.S. citizen despite all evidence to the contrary.
If you voted for him then you're obviously OK with all of this and you certainly don't find dishonesty despicable.
What's it like being you?...

Good for John to do what he needs to do though. Just wish he didn’t have to eventually bow down to the evil empire.
