    Imagine working for months towards an outcome - spreading COVID-19 as much as possible - and then blaming *other people* for the problematic outcomeshttps://twitter.com/MartinKulldorff/status/1345621393594064896 …

    In case you hadn't noticed, the lesson of 2020 is that people who thought spring lockdowns would work have all been proved wrong, and the people who tried to warn you that they would simply postpone things have all been proved right. This is *even more* true than I expected. https://twitter.com/bealelab/status/1344820766911692801 …

        It's like dousing a house in petrol, lighting the match, and then arguing it was doomed to burn from the start just like you said

        "The spring lockdowns failed! Something that no one could predict given that I've been working to explicitly reverse any benefit gained in those lockdowns for the last six months!"

        Lockdown is a tool. Tools don't fail. Strategies succeed or fail. Zero covid strategy in N. Zealand and Australia has worked. Lockdowns were successful in these countries because of the strategy, not the other way around. Any other strategy has failed.
