“COVID lockdowns shaved 3.5% off US GDP even as the govt spent more than $2.6T. Millions of children fell behind in learning and nearly 100k businesses closed for good. Conventional wisdom says it was worth it...but new study shows the opposite”. - Lockdowns didn’t stop Covid.

That’s because the lockdown wasn’t supposed to stop the Wuhan virus. The lockdown was supposed to stop the people from prospering so they could e more easily controlled. It nearly succeeded.
