When everyone is "isolated" no one (especially the most vulnerable) is.

Instead of protecting the most vulnerable, our illusion of protecting everyone could do nothing else but backfire. Of course it doesn't help that the governors of the northeast are all nearsighted, never looking for what Bastiat termed the unseen consequences. When all politics is political theater and grandstanding, sometimes the long-term consequences you don't fear happen much sooner, and to the detriment of the weak and frail.

Um, I get your point and agree with you, but this post does not meet posting guidelines.

I’ll leave it to the mod to explain why.

I learned the hard way, too (long ago).

RE:”Um, I get your point and agree with you, but this post does not meet posting guidelines.”

The title at the link is “States ordered nursing homes to take COVID-19 residents. Thousands died. How it happened”

The fake title above is “When everyone is “isolated” no one (especially the most vulnerable) is.”

The test of the article is different too.

Yup. I just wasn’t in the mood to outline it. I’m surprised it’s still up.

Looks like poster wrote their own opinion piece and title and used a somewhat related link to the Nursing Home article.
