A related bad argument I'm seeing lately is that e.g. "the US is "becoming too reliant on one tool, vaccines". Well, that's because vaccines are BY FAR the best tool. They go MUCH FURTHER than others toward allowing us to resume normal life while GREATLY reducing COVID harms. — PolitiTweet.org

Is there a trade off with vaccines for other counties? I don't know, but as a matter of theory, basic economics would suggest that increased demand will increase supply. And as a matter of practice, elected officials are going to look to protect their own citizens first. — PolitiTweet.org

One could very reasonably argue that vaccines pass a cost-benefit test while other interventions don't. (Personally I'm moderately in favor of mask mandates too under some circumstances in the short run, but not in the long run.) — PolitiTweet.org
