It’s really almost dystopian at this point. For example Iowa never went into full shut down mode and held public school in person and had HS sports for most of school year. It’s neighbor Illinois went into full lockdown mode.... the media coverage was constant and consistent on how terrible things were in Iowa.

Fast forward to actual data Iowa has less infections and less fatalities per 1000 people than Illinois (almost the same Illinois slightly higher). No headlines anywhere mentioning Iowa’s approach may have been practical after all.
Another example look at data for young people 0-20 with the virus. Covid poses very little risk at all which is a great thing and we should be glad ... again no coverage.
