I think public health issues will always be a tough call. We are told about “the science”, but the “noble lie” and lab-leak taboos make unquestioning faith hard to justify. That leaves us with old-fashioned politics and governance to generate policy. It doesn’t help that so many try to politicize this virus. What balance do we strike between liberty and safety?

I think there is some space between every man for himself and a federal registry of the clean and unclean. Somewhere between being lone wolves or veal calves.
