FEE’s Brad Polumbo writes, “We’re into year three of the COVID-19 pandemic. From mask mandates to vaccine passports, government restrictions on our liberties remain in place. But, thankfully, at least in the US, the era of lockdown orders confining Americans’ to their homes to ‘slow the spread’ is over.

Unfortunately, a new meta-analysis of studies shows that all the pain and sacrifice we endured from those orders achieved little—despite their tremendous costs.”

“The science” indicates lockdowns didn’t change the trajectory of the pandemic. Now left wing ‘science deniers’ are insisting on another lockdown. Insane! https://t.co/B3VpJR0KsX

From the Wall Street Journal, “Follow the science’ has been the battle cry of lockdown supporters since the Covid-19 pandemic began. Yet before March 2020, the mainstream scientific community, including the World Health Organization, strongly opposed lockdowns and similar measures against infectious disease.”

Knox County, Tennessee Mayor Glenn Jacobs tweeted on Wednesday:

I stood up for small businesses against the lockdowns. I’m against government overreach and always will be.

This stance is something Knox County’s mayor has been consistent on for many months, particularly after witnessing how destructive the initial lockdowns were across the country.

Vaccines are now readily available across the county for those who want them, and our economy cannot sustain another devastating lockdown. I have faith in the people of this county to make the decisions that benefit their families best.

Some studies have shown that the lockdowns did not do much to stop the spread of Covid. We don’t need a study to see how much damage the lockdowns did in a myriad of ways.

Mayor Glenn Jacobs chooses liberty, which seems to work best for the most people, every time.
