This is a post about the absolutely insane, crushing restrictions being imposed on young, healthy vaccinated (often booster and often naturally immune) people by institutions of knowledge. In order to prove my thesis that these policies are misguided, let me start with some basics.

When it comes to COVID19, there are only 3 things any of us can do:
  1. We can lower the risk of bad outcomes when we encounter the virus.
  2. We can delay the time to meet the virus
  3. We can engage in theater which does not delay the time to meet the virus
What goes in these buckets?
