One Year After Revolver's Classic Piece Exposing Dangers Of Lockdowns, "Science" Finally Catches Up

One Year After Revolver's Classic Piece Exposing Dangers Of Lockdowns, "Science" Finally Catches Up. Support Revolver By Going AD-FREE. CHECK OUT THE NEWS FEED - FOLLOW US ON GAB - CHECK OUT THE MERCH STORE. Two brand new studies from the National Bureau of Economic Research completely vindicate Revolver's own reporting over the past year: Mass lockdowns in the name of combating coronavirus ended and abbreviated more lives than they they saved.

In lower-income countries, the economic contractions that accompany lockdowns to contain the spread of COVID-19 can increase child mortality, counteracting the mortality reductions achieved by the lockdown.

Most of the publicized cost-benefit analyses of COVID-19 lockdowns have used coarse measures like lives as units rather than life-years, which misleads politicians and the general public.

COVID-19 deaths disproportionately impact the oldest members of the population, whereas the economic impacts of lockdowns disproportionately harm the youngest of the working population, who have far greater life expectancies at the time of impact.

Thankfully, coronavirus lockdown policies are finally ending across the whole country, nearly a year after it became clear how worthless they were.

Simple common-sense policies, like those enacted by South Dakota, proved vastly better than the insane theater foisted on the country by "Public health experts." Lockdowns weren't the product of a bad cost-benefit analysis.

When politics dictated that the lockdowns weren't useful, the lockdowns vanished.
