Were the early pandemic lockdows ineffective, bad policy and a waste of time? -- Europe is moving beyond COVID restrictions, so why can't we?
Think back to when this all started, March of 2020 when the world basically shut down. We were told we all had to stay home to both flatten the curve and save lives. Well, new analysis from Johns Hopkins University found that all those lockdowns had very little impact on saving lives in both the U-S and Europe.
With the worst of omicron seemingly behind us as cases continue to drop, many doctors are now saying it's time to start easing COVID restrictions--and that includes taking off our masks. Does the science support gradually moving on from the pandemic?
