    Alexander Chee Retweeted Timothy Burke

    At what point are they held accountable for the deaths they’ve caused, given what they know? I wish this article addressed that as well. I can appreciate quotes saying this is devastating—it is—but it isn’t enough to say something is painful.https://twitter.com/bubbaprog/status/1466529157089792000 …

    The state of Missouri commissioned a study to see if mask mandates worked. When the results came in, showing they saved lives, the state blocked publication in order to maintain its attempt to force cities like St. Louis to end their mask mandates: https://missouriindependent.com/2021/12/01/missouri-health-department-found-mask-mandates-work-but-didnt-make-findings-public/ …

        Absolutely. I want to know the names of the underlings who carried this out. Show us the email chains.

        the repoting on this kind of thing is abhorrent, too. It's like ... "but what COULD they do" as if they had no power or ability. Like we are all just passive observers to a windstorm here.
