Study: Lockdowns Had Largest Impact in Destroying Economic Activity

[reagansghost]

it's a damn shame Trump ignored the virus for an entire year, big reason why we're still in this situation

if Biden had been president when the covid struck the schools would already be open and commerce would be well on its way to recovery

oh well

I seriously doubt it. For example, here in Arizona all those restrictions on business activity were in place, mask wearing was mandatory in public. Yet, cases went up dramatically in the last couple of months. So, that is physical proof that the restrictions and mask wearing didn't slow or prevent the spread of Chinese Disease.

I suppose you can try to argue it would have been worse, but there's no way to prove that so it is arguing proof of a negative. On the other hand, the spread in AZ went down after an initial rise then shot back up dramatically even as restrictions remained in place. That indicates that something besides the measures the government forced on society was driving the spread. It also makes a strong argument that the government's actions were of little or no use.

Think you are overlooking a few Events, Thanksgiving, an Election, Christmas, New Year's, and a thing called the Superbowl, all of which are both g contributers to spreading the virus. And that does even take into account all of those that simply refuse to wear masks or social distance.

Sorry to inform you, Bag boy, you are not in control of that Fact. Hey, go get some exercise and lose some of that baby fat.

The NBER paper suggested government restrictions were primarily responsible for the economic damage.

Data from Oxford University and the US Bureau of Labor and Statistics show that states with the most restrictive policies had substantially more unemployment than states with the least restrictive policies.

Nor is this the only evidence that suggests lockdowns, not the virus, were the primary economic destructor.

A brief look at history shows there was no massive economic collapse in previous pandemics that were similarly deadly (or more deadly).

Australia and SK have done far better than the US

Have they?

 

[Legion]

The CDC can predict, very accurately, the number of expected deaths in any given time period. With the onset of COVID, there have been over 500,000 excess deaths than normally expected. Yet, the “official” COVID death count is much lower, = undercount. PoonT, set, match, bitch.

Excess mortality. Over 500,000. Debunk it.

You made the claim, cunt. Cue Jeopardy theme...........

Yea, sure...

 

[Nordberg]

Prove it.

I am supposed to prove that the lockdowns were caused by the Trump virus? Wow, that was stupid. Trump fucked off and did extremely little That is why we have by far the most cases and deaths on the planet. The difference is we had Daffy. Other nations shut their borders to us because of how badly Trump fucked up. We still cannot go to Canada. The EU is open to 15 countries. Not us.

Nobody kills babies. So here we really are.

Don't deflect. Own it, and be proud about it.

Well then take it up with them, I am not a Dem. You Freedum ends at the tip of your nose and does allow you to be a health hazard to others. Just so you know, You be your I'll are why this Nation has done so badly in getting the virus under control.

The experts' lack of understanding of COVID has been the chief problem. Remember, it's not transmissible amongst humans, and we don't-do-don't-actually need to double-mask.
