Subject: Re: Murthy vs Missouri , for the legal scholars
I suppose I should be surprised that we have people on here defending the government's response to Covid, but that's consistent with a cadre of posters who only consume data from approved liberal sources. I remember the debates we had on TMF about Covid and one particularly panicked eurodude saying that THIS WAS THE APOCALYPSE or some such thing.

Anyways, here's one of the 'heroes' of Covid in action:

Deborah Birx’s Guide to Destroying A Country From Within
BY MICHAEL SENGER JULY 14, 2022

A real savior, Birx:

Virtually every page of Birx’s monstrosity of a book, Silent Invasion, reads like a how-to guide in subverting a democratic superpower from within, as could only be told through the personal account of someone who was on the front lines doing just that.
Notably, though Birx’s memoir has earned relatively few reviews on Amazon, it’s earned rave reviews from Chinese state media, a feat not shared even by far-more-popular pro-lockdown books such as those by Michael Lewis and Lawrence Wright.

Hey, even the incompetent have fans. How on top of things was she?
So just to recap, here we have Deborah Birx—the woman who did more than almost any other person in the United States to promote and prolong Covid lockdowns, silencing anyone who disagreed with her, to the incessant praise of mainstream media outlets—telling us she’d been inspired by all those images of Wuhan residents falling dead and constructing a hospital in 10 days, and still didn’t realize they were fake two years after they’d been proven fake.
And that’s just Chapter 1.

Swell. Here's Birx on the "dangerous" Dr. Atlas:
That schools could open everywhere without any precautions (neither masking nor testing), regardless of the status of the spread in the community.
That children did not transmit the virus.
That children didn’t get ill. That there was no risk to anyone young.
That long Covid-19 was being overplayed.
That heart-damage findings were incidental.
That comorbidities did not play a critical role in communities, especially among teachers.
That merely employing some physical distance overcame the virus’s ill effects.
That masks were overrated and not needed.
That the Coronavirus Task Force had gotten the country into this situation by promoting testing.
That testing falsely increased case counts in the United States in comparison with other countries.
That targeted testing and isolation constituted a lockdown, plain and simple, and weren’t needed.

Huh. Pretty much all of that turned out to be true.
