To put it MILDLY:

“There’s something appealing about the view that science floats loftily above us all, accessible to a select few with years of rigorous training in its methods. But, as romantic visions often do, it fell hard to earth. The follow-the-science logic we have lived under during Covid demands wartime sacrifices from the public while rationalizing sloth from leaders and institutions in mobilizing tools to relieve the burden. It became an easy out for bureaucratic turf protection, lost dynamism and institutional fecklessness. ‘Follow the science’ became a failure to lead, a way to shift the onus of responsibility from presidents, Congress, health authorities and school boards onto the public…The public health establishment will not be able to do better than this without real soul-searching. And that will require swallowing a bitter pill: labeling Dr. Fauci’s Covid legacy and the approach it embodied a failure… we must learn to see science as a vehicle, not a dodge, for human agency: something we are right to make demands of, right at times to get angry at, whose terrible failures it must own along with its triumphs.”

-The New York Times on Anthony Fauci and the COVID response via Coffee and Covid, September 1, 2022

“Let’s step back to where we were, uh, not too long ago, when this president walked into this administration. Uh, how mismanaged, uh, the pandemic, the response to the pandemic was. Uh, how 47% of schools, uh, uh, were, uh, in, in less than six months, uh, our schools went from 40 per—, uh, 46% percent, uh, to, to open, to nearly all of them being open, full time. That was the work of this president. And that was the work of democrats. In spite of Republicans not voting for the American Rescue Plan…

We were, we were in a place where, uh, uh, schools were not open. The economy was shut down. Businesses were shut down. And — what we have seen is, uh, you know, we’ve seen the numbers. But I think that’s what WE see, that’s how we saw, it, it shows you how mismanaged, uh, the pandemic was. Uh, and how the impact of that mismanagement had on the chil—, uh, on kids’ progress, and academic well being…And, you know, every Republican congress voted against that money. That is the reality. We had to do this on our own.”

“What happened to kids?”
