Critical thinking along with rational data-based analysis is not that easy to do it seems. I feel like the Corona situation has made this worse, so its good to see some sensibility being applied. One case in point, the Corona situation in New York for the past 4 months. Around July the indoor dining was restricted in New York as mentioned in https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/01/nyregion/indoor-dining-coronavirus-nyc.html https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/01/nyregion/indoor-dining-co.... Another passage from the article states: "...could trickle back to New York, which has managed to rein in the outbreak.". At that point New York had around 800-1000 infections daily, a similar number is making other countries increase Corona restrictions even more, e.g. Denmark. But if you examine the deaths to Corona in New York since June 1st it is a very small number compared to the deaths back in April. So on that fact it seems that lifting indoor restrictions in September 2020 is not very rational, but rather an over-reaction in dealing with the after-effects of the Corona virus. I hope that data-based decisions will return at some point.
