Bump a mask thread so we can laugh at the retards.
Oh and a vaccine thread with medical professionals saying the vaccine was necessary so we can laugh at those idiots too.

I predict there will be a lot of historical revisionism happening in this thread—just like in every post-COVID discussion—by those who now want to portray themselves as the logical, reasonable ones. In reality, they bought into and echoed the media’s sensationalized narrative of COVID.

Yep
Florida was open
California closed beaches and public parks
Michigan had Home Depot and other stores barricading off seeds and other things at Home Depot’s.
Governor Honor Code wanted everything shutdown

What blows my mind is how many still parrot the line that "we didn't know what was going on" early on. While true, the public was largely intentionally blinded, that wasn't the case top to bottom.
Our health organizations had been studying the virus for over a decade, they knew what it was and how it worked.
Our media knew the pictures in China of people "dying in the streets" were not real in regards to Covid, yet passed them off anyways. They knew the hospital pictures that had manequins in beds were fake, but passed them off anyways. They knew that the story from New York about the kids getting/dying that really started the whole lockdown craze was bullshite.
The lockdowns and forced mask wearing goes against longstanding policies on what works best to deal with these type situations, and they abandoned that.
As someone already mentioned, the death toll numbers were such a joke. We basically stopped testing for anything but Covid, and lumped everything as covid. Even though that was pointed out by many almost immediately, people still refused to believe it.
ETA: And lets not even get into the fact that they completely made up basically everything in regards to the social distancing rules, lied about testing mask transmission, lied about testing vaccine transmission, lied about testing the vaccine really at all, considering they unblinded it almost immediately. Yet doctors and pharmacists regurgitated the spoonfulls they were fed like good lemmings. Lost a lot of respect for the medical community that showed how little they actually pay attention and just do what big Pharma tells them.

Wait, who could have predicted that toddlers and babies not being able to see the mouths of adults and older kids would have an impact on their ability to learn and synthesize speech?
And the worst part is, the fricking teachers in nearly every state that had to take a childhood development/psychology class to graduate would have learned this in the first week (at least in a summer semester,) and they were the biggest pussies.

Florida went through a period where they wouldn't rent vacation homes to people from LA.
Open?

Looks like ell_13 had a pretty good guess back in '20.
You remember part of the Hippocratic oath? It doesn't say, "First, do no harm, unless you're really scared, then if it saves just one, do whatever harm your emotions think is appropriate."

I am currently reading RFKs book about the response to covid and Fauchi. It is absolutely criminal the response that our government had to covid. Our government and the handling of the response killed people. Fauci and his minions refused to look at MDs that were successfully treating patients and even sued and censored MDs to prevent them from speaking about COVID and the treatability of the virus with common drugs that have been tested and proven safe for years. Fauchi should be tried and sentenced for murder

As bad as all the guesswork was, what's even worse are the blowhards who can't let covid go and always feel the insatiable need to say look at me, look at me, here is something I wrote 5 years ago saying I don't believe the government.

Florida was open
As far as closings, it was all local to start. Lib mayors were shitting down their cities (eta: I mean shutting but shitting works too)… first a week. Then governors got involved. It was all knee jerk and falling over one another to prove who cared most about their citizens. It was all for show with no real guardrails in place. No idea how to open again or what would be necessary to open. It snowballed because of those psychos who only cared about the performance.

It was a real deadly illness for people with other comorbidities, there was a microscopic chance of it being deadly if you were a healthy non-elderly person.

And quickly reversed that ruling. As the weeks and months pressed on, they opened far faster and far more completely than LA did.
I’m pretty sure every state “closed” in March. But come June/July time frame some states were far more open than others

Everything was Covid. Why? Because a diagnosis meant $$$$$ to the healthcare system. A provider/hospital that had a COVID patient got 20% more money for each case. Who would say no to that easy bonus?
I fell down stairs carrying a door. I thought I broke my knee. Could barely get to the doctor I was hurting so bad. He couldn’t get me in and out fast enough. When I checked out he was back outside waiting on cars to do a mobile Covid test. God knows what they were making off each test and it was just rolling through the parking lot.

Why would I?
It was idiotic, like a lot of the "mandates".

Yep. That and the fact that even though it was known very early on how it was transmitted, they quarantined Covid beds and silo'd them specifically for covid.
I'm not saying hospitals didn't get overwhelmed, they obviously did, but a lot of them it was because their specified covid beds were filled, not because all of their beds were filled. If they would have made a reasonable policy change and opened up all beds to potential covid patients, a lot of those problems would have mostly gone away.

Nope, it wasn't quick.
