Lately I've seen people ask why the US numbers don't look more like the UK, which had a surge in cases recently but comparatively few deaths. But US states that have vaccination rates ~similar to the UK actually have fewer deaths than the UK, though the numbers lag & may rise. — PolitiTweet.org

@mattyglesias There are credible arguments that liberals overestimate the effectiveness of lockdowns and underestimate their costs (importantly, primarily non-economic costs: mental health, learning loss, social ties, etc.) that don't have much to do with the risks of COVID being exaggerated. — PolitiTweet.org
