Our Collective Response to Covid was Worse Than the Illness Itself.

Covid-19 is a real and serious illness that has taken the lives of over 1 Million Americans and almost 7 Million people worldwide. It is quite literally one of the most serious health threats we have faced in the last three years, but our collective response to it has had far more negative consequences than the illness itself.

First, our economic health has been severely weakened. Our nation was already a teetering ship economically prior to the forced lockdowns and shutdown of the world economy, but thanks to the governmental response and our collective acceptance of it, our national debt increased nearly 9 Trillion Dollars—5 Trillion of that was from 2020 alone. Our supply chain was severely disrupted, and the economic pump still needs some priming in order to get it flowing again.

Secondly our children’s academic health has suffered. Face masks inhibit communication. Young children learning to speak and read missed valuable opportunities to learn proper articulation, pronunciation, and facial and emotional discernment because of the masks. Children literally missed several months to a year or more in their academic progress. This loss will be nearly impossible to overcome and will cause less productivity and innovation in our nation’s future.

Thirdly, our mental health suffered. Isolation, lack of human contact and touch, less social interaction— these lead to depression, anxiety, loneliness, and other maladies of the mind. Humans are social creatures in need of contact. We became a nation of scaredy cats (or were revealed as one). The forced lockdowns did severe, and possibly, irreparable harm to our collective mental health.

What about our spiritual health? Churches were shut down-even when they made very reasonable accommodations to the pandemic—like meeting outside or in cars in a parking lot. The government overreach was despicable!

Finally, our physical health suffered. Children missed already scheduled vaccinations because of closed medical offices, adults missed diagnostic tests, screenings, and regular checkups that could have prevented cancer, heart problems, stroke, diabetes…. Was the health trade worth it? I say no. Should we have implemented common sense practices to actually slow the spread? Absolutely! Wash your hands, stay home when feverish or likely contagious, sleep, exercise, take supplements, eat right—sure. But stay home, wear a mask, don’t touch, don’t visit grandma or friends—absolutely not!

I’m sure I missed some things as I am musing and rambling, but I need to express myself.

Vaccine Hesitancy

The Covid-19 virus has exposed very clearly one of our great national problems: Americans do not trust their institutions any longer. We don’t trust Congress; we don’t trust the bureaucracies; we don’t trust the educational system; we don’t trust the MSM; we don’t trust the Church; we don’t trust the economic system; we don’t trust the electoral system; we don’t trust the opposition politicalparty—you get the point. The question is why. Why don’t we trust these institutions? It’s really quite simple: These institutions have violated our trust too many times. We’ve seen politicians lie time and again; we’ve watched bureaucrats change their stories, color their stories, and refuse to admit when they are wrong or just plain don’t know; we’ve seen teachers and administrators move from educating to indoctrinating; we’ve watched as the MSM has become unapologetically partisan and refuse to investigate and question “their team members”; we’ve seen Church and Religious leaders cover up for abuse and teach doctrines that are openly contradictory to their Sacred Books; we watch as the government issues tax breaks, bailouts, “loans,” and actual handouts to corporations and millionaires; we’ve watched as BOTH parties claim that the duly-elected President is “not my President”; and I don’t really need to describe slimy politicians. Now all of this explains “vaccine hesitancy,” and trying to FORCE people to do something that they don’t trust just doesn’t make sense. What is the answer? US—we are the answer. We have to do the right thing; we have to follow the golden rule; we have to hold our leaders accountable. Feel free to comment. Have a great day!
