Beginning in early April 2020, everyone promoted the usage of masks.
It’s unfortunate that we were worried about consumers buying all the medical masks but in March 2020, it was a legitimate concern
- symlinkk 5y agoThey’ve proven already that they’ll sacrifice the health of the masses for the greater good when they lied about masks. I don’t think it’s a stretch to consider that they may be doing the same with vaccines.
- krrrh 5y agoIt was a legitimate concern and a ruinous strategy. I believe that competent leadership could have rallied the public to the cause of reserving PPE for hospitals for a month. Even if you don't believe in the basic nobility of the common person, congress could easily have passed emergency confiscatory legislation to pull all PPE off consumer markets without public health officials knowingly misrepresenting the truth. Trust in institutions was already low at the start of this, and the sort of misdirection that a series of supposedly noble lies has evinced has taken it to a new low and left us where we are now.
