20/20 Hindsight, We Were Never Going to Stop COVID – Our Response Should Have Been This

This is going to be a bit of a rant, so bear with me. While I recall thinking this in the early days of COVID, it could just be my brain saying “I told you so.”

We were never going to stop COVID.

This is very simple, either you get the vaccine or you get the disease in the passage of time (2 years, 5 years, 10 years), you cannot count on anything else. We were never going to stop the disease by isolating the patients, masks or social distancing. Herd immunity was never within reach. China was already allowing it to spread around the world, there was no keeping it out or keeping it from large population centers. Americans do not have the heart to exterminate or otherwise mistreat diseased people (which would likely have saved 100’s of thousands during the AIDS epidemic…), we are not willing to throw away our Constitution quite so easily, even in the face of life and death conditions.

We needed to resign ourselves to the condition that COVID was here to stay. Only China could have prevented a worldwide epidemic, and they were not cooperating. Our only goal at that point should have been to make sure that our hospitals were not overwhelmed, that people who got the disease had access to treatment, and that vulnerable populations (mostly the old folks) were protected as much as possible until the vaccine was available. Locking down was a good tool to try to keep the disease at bay, but trying to prevent any and all contagion was foolish. And still is.

If I were starting this over again, the right feedback loop is to watch the hospitals and make sure we have the capacity for the patients. The social measures should be throttled accordingly. When hospital beds are open, social measures should relax. When hospital beds are close to full, increase the social measures where it makes sense and only to the extent that we don’t exceed hospital capacity. And all of this should be a DELAYING TACTIC until the vaccine was prepared. Thereafter, the vaccine should be is the only measure necessary. Many local governments have actually followed this (wittingly or unwittingly). It makes sense.

Once we found out that the young were in almost no danger, we should have embraced that and (much like parents used to do with Chickenpox), expended our efforts making sure that they DID get the disease and got over it (or in later stages, get the vaccine). Schools should never have been closed, at least not for more than the first month, while we were getting the parameters for the disease. Kids were major carriers but in no danger themselves. This should have been obvious.

I believe that the correct focus would have shortened the COVID crisis and mitigated the economic damage by a factor of ten. The over-reaction of some officials caused a great deal of unnecessary damage. I don’t believe that lives were saved.

The very early Trump response was that probably COVID would not be an issue. Why did he say that (100% supported by his advisors)? Very simple, history indicated that epidemics like this were not likely, there was not a lot that anyone could do, and he didn’t want people to panic. There were just a handful of cases in America at that point.

But later, as new data indicated that this was a serious threat for epidemic, Trump issued the orders and guidance, based on the advice of his advisors, to start with masks, do social distancing, etc. He started distributing resources, ventilators, hospital resources, etc. and using federal funds to pay for the production of supplies.

More importantly, he started the most massive effort in history to develop the vaccine, funding billions in research from multiple sources, which resulted in the fastest start to finish vaccine development in history.

The partisan attacks on Trump and the vaccine by the Democrats gained them power in the 2020 elections, but opened a chasm between political factions. The resulting resistance costs thousands of lives and $100’s of Billions in economic damage.

Initially, attacks on Trump damaged the reputation of the vaccine, causing doubt in many people’s minds. The Biden Administration has an existing vaccine (thanks, Donald), but has failed to inspire the level of vaccine usage that would reduce contagion. Biden has allowed a new resurgence in COVID, there was absolutely no reason for this to have happened.

Make no mistake, I blame the Democrats (because I always do, and it is usually their fault) but this was a failure on both sides. And it was a failure of previous administrations not developing the proper plan for dealing with an epidemic. With 20/20 hindsight, this is obvious.

And we have not quite learned yet. We still see people being harassed or fired for not getting the vaccine, we still have mask mandates that don’t make sense, and those damned social distancing stickers are still on the floors of many supermarkets.

And approvals for vaccines for children are just now getting underway. That should have been done a year ago.

Again, we were never going to stop COVID.

COVID is very similar to every other kind of flu, it is contagious and it will not go away. It will be with us from now on. The vaccine for it will have to adapt, much like the regular flu vaccine does now. COVID will be normal, hopefully the B.S. that came with it will not be.

    The Biden Administration has an existing vaccine
    Don’t call a medical gene treatment a vaccine.
    There was no need for an injection when there were and are many preventive and interruptive medical treatments.
    From the get-go, the pharma leaning powers that be wanted to make piles of money from “vaccines”, to the detriment of most everyone’s health.

    UH! COVID WILL STAY AWAY FROM ME! I TOLD IT SO!

    iNSPIRE THE LEVEL OF VACCINE USAGE THAT WOULD REDUCE CONTAGION?
    FIRST OF ALL, IT IS NOT A VACCINE, IT IS A ‘FLU’ SHOT.
    A VACCINE STOPS THE ABILITY TO GET IT AND ALSO TO TRANSMIT IT.
    THIS ‘FLU’ SHOT DOES NEITHER!
    THERE IS NOT PANDEMIC! JUST A SCAMDEMIC! FOLLOW THE MONEY AND I AM BEGINNING TO WONDER IF TRUMP IS PART OF IT!

      Actually, it is gene therapy. It alters the T- and helper cells, actually making you MORE open to infection. Natural immunity (from catching it) is far superior to anything that can be developed BECAUSE… (wait for it) that is how GOD DESIGNED it!

      Trump isn’t “part of it. His advisors went against his correct instincts. Highly recommend Dr. Scott Atlas’ book, “Plague On Our House” for a more accurate picture of things.

    Immediately upon the knowledge of the existence of covid the leftists seized upon the opportunity to create a political narrative intended for only one purpose. That purpose was to rid themselves of Trump. From day one of the Trump administration the left literally lost their collective minds. Nothing mattered and no sacrifice was too big to obtain the singular goal of destroying Trump. Incessant lies false accusations and literally trumped up charges started from day one. None of it worked and without truth behind them they failed at every turn except for one. They had completely brainwashed their base with the unproven lie that Trump was a racist. That one stuck regardless of accuracy. It stuck with people I knew as rational human beings yet none would listen to logic or facts. We know fauci approved financing WUHAN and lied about it. We knew China was losing the economic battle Trump had waged against them and their insidious plots to infiltrate America in every conceivable way. We know Biden and Pelosi and the leadership of the left were in bed at least financially with China. Lo and behold China “accidentally” releases covid. This of course would devastate the western powers and Trump as well. Guess what? It worked. Now we can easily see this was no accident and it was purely political. Now the script has flipped. The ridiculous promises to stop an unstoppable force has given the left the power they so maniacally craved but now they are being decimated politically for the very same reason. Biden is all in on vaccines evidenced at every turn. First off there’s no vaccine available. Even the CDC and FDA had to redefine the very description of a vaccine and did so. Biden didn’t buy testing kits because that was the only opt out for the so called “vaccine”. No religious exemptions approved period. So if you want to earn a living your only option is the so called “vaccine” that doesn’t keep anyone from catching or passing on covid. From the start logical thinking and a little knowledge of historical responses to a pandemic showed the mitigation that was espoused was not going to do anything other than destroying the excellent economy we were enjoying. We were told two weeks to flatten the curve but most of us knew better. I personally watched my industry of live music be destroyed never to return. Now two years later and still we hear the constant rhetoric about ridiculous masks that don’t work vaccine mandates that don’t work and shutdowns that don’t work. Yet still we hear the shaming of those who choose not to let the federal government forcing these ineffective policies to be imposed on us all. This was never about saving lives this was and still is all about politics. I too said from jump street that shutdowns and mask mandates were ludicrous and wouldn’t work. I read about how N95 masks filtered only anything. 4 microns while a virion was nearly ten times smaller so clearly ineffective and we’re expected to use paper masks that don’t filter anywhere close to the size of a virion. Not only that but a virion is not gravity specific therefore is airborne. Now that the lies pushed by the left and mainstream media are being exposed you might expect some semblance of reality being touted but as per usual the fear tactics are being pushed even harder with no logical solution being considered. Why is the Biden administration pushing ineffective vaccines and mask mandates after all the lies have been exposed? Moreover why is the push of vaccines directed towards the young and healthy? Kids in school and working age people are targeted yet the most vulnerable are not being targeted. The elderly are not being targeted by vaccines but covid clearly is the largest risk group. Again we have to ask ourselves why? I almost appears that the release of covid was done so primarily because it would target the weak and elderly. Is any of this beginning to penitrate the false narrative ? As I sit and reflect on nonsense of the last two years and I watch the mainstream media push the same fear tactics and push the same old mitigations that clearly aren’t effective I simply have to conclude this is a well organized ploy by our leftist administration. The fight against vaccine mandates isn’t about the vaccine itself its about testing the nation to see just how far government can go if they can make you afraid enough to give away your personal freedoms. We are seeing what can happen in socialist countries like Australia Canada France Italy etc. It’s to the point where those governments are literally imprisoning citizens and making life impossible for those who refuse to capitulate. The real problem is once this is allowed there’s absolutely no end to how far government will go to run your life. This is not freedom. This is tyranny disguised as compassion. Just listen to Trudeau and you will see exactly where this is headed. Wake up America before its too late.
    God Bless America

    What I know about medicine can be written on the head of a pin, but I have been called an inter-disciplinary techie and happen to believe the following:

    In addition to all of the unnecessary deaths you mention, there is another class that is completely off the grid and not on any triage lists. Media typically report new cases, hospitalizations and deaths but completely ignore countless cases of “Long Term Covid”.

    These long-termers are stuck with damage to many organs, including the heart, kidneys and the brain; some can’t even walk or talk. This may last years or for life!

    This is not déjà vu all over again, it is different! Ordinary vaccinations are not the answer. This year’s Flu vaccine targets the wrong variant and we cannot afford that kind of mistake in developing new vaccines for new Covid mutations.

    It is also my understanding that vaccines merely act as Sentinels, and try to ‘fire up’ our immune systems before it is too late. Consider the speed of Covid mutation and Omicron transmissibility. Vaccine effectiveness fades out every 6 months; so development and world-wide distribution of new vaccines will never be able to keep up.

    In this case, the vaccine approach is ‘bas ackwards’. Rather than take over the job of detection, our very capable immune systems only need to be ‘trained’ for something completely new!

    As you mentioned, in the beginning was the time to let children get infected, and their immune systems could take over from there, automatically adapting to new variants!! Unfortunately, that opportunity has passed and children now get serious symptoms.

    What they should have done, instead of developing ordinary vaccines, was to develop a vaccine that uses recombinant nanoparticle technology to present just a bit of DEAD Covid-19 spike protein to the body’s immune system. These dead samples train immune systems, with complete safety. It is now probably too late and dangerous to implement in the wake of Omicron.

    It has only now, just received World Health Organization (WHO) emergency use listing (EUL), a prerequisite for distributing the vaccine to nations under the COVAX program.

    At this point, perhaps a few unvaccinated individuals could voluntarily receive the completely safe recombinant nanoparticle technology. Once their immune systems are trained, their genomes can be mapped in minutes. The all-important new genes could then be distributed to everybody. That should scare the —t out of people but I see no other hope for humanity, (and other species).
