Over time vaccination, accumulated immunity from prior infections, improved treatment options, etc make it viable to operate a non-NPI society — not with zero burden of Covid (it would be better if this hadn’t happened!) but without the concern that we won’t be able to treat. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Nowadays if you say anything about Covid you’re guaranteed to get screamed at by the people who insist all NPIs were a mistake and by the people who insist anything short of Covid Zero is eugenics. But “restrict activity enough so the sick can be treated properly” made sense. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
The concern was that when the raw number of cases got too high, the *death rate* would soar due to incapacity to deliver treatments, and we needed to prevent that. This was an important reason not to “let ’er rip” but also a much more modest goal than Covid Zero. — PolitiTweet.org
Matthew Yglesias @mattyglesias
Covid discourse has become such a cesspool of ill-will and polarization but it’s interesting to go back to the original wave of public health communication about NPIs and the need to “flatten the curve” — I think we mostly achieved it! — PolitiTweet.org

The good news is that it is not hard to find efficiency-promoting reforms that are also equality-promoting — many of our leaky buckets of redistribution are redistributing resources upward. https://t.co/P3JPpCEWWF — PolitiTweet.org

@LeahLibresco The thing is an abortion is a voluntary arrangement between a woman and her doctor who might lie to authorities and say it was a spontaneous miscarriage. So to effectively enforce a law against abortion, you need to investigate miscarriages. — PolitiTweet.org
