lockdowns didn't work, and in fact may have helped the spread of the virus. If we assume that to be true which political party do we blame? It would be nice to get a sampling of small business owners to weigh in on this one.

The study was of other countries that didn't go as hard vs those that did. And a lot of businesses will never open again and small business employ around 50% of all people who work in the US. My business has suffered and hopefully, I can get thru one more year and sell out.

It's every politicians fault, they never questioned the science. The science behind the lockdown is bad...and it has not changed. CA is worried about a surge in positive tests and may have to lock down even further...the next sentence was...it is based off of modeling and not actual data that is being collected...let that sink in...a year after this started, the are still using modeling that is is a best an educated guess and at worst a really bad attempt to control society.

I know there was a study, not by fox news, that examined the countries that shut down vs those that didn't. It involved Sweden and South Korea vs the rest of the world. I thought he was citing fox's citing that study. The results of the study was that lockdowns didn't work any better

Science/Medics finally got their time in the spotlight and won't be going away quietly. In this last year, every time a hint of good news was dashed aside within 24 hours with another strain of virus announced or a "Needed shutdown" was imposed to further slow the spread.....Compliance is mandatory.....
