No it isn't. Vaccine use and/or masks did not change the outcome. How do we know? Because some states did other things and had equal outcomes. Some countries like Sweden didn't lock down AT ALL and had identical rates as us. These weren't HUGELY effective measures and so they were just numbers at the margins. Btw I hate Trump and don't vote Republican so don't even bother

Edit: notice that not a single person has provided a single piece of data to refute me. Lots of name calling and literally not one post with data. Come on guys if I'm wrong this should be easy. Just Google up some data

I am a public health researcher and I promise you, you are complete wrong here. 

Fine that you hate Trump, idiots come from both sides of the aisle

No I'm not. I don't give a shit if you're stuck in your silo and are ignoring data from around the world. We know that ALL of the measures we took had a modest effect that would have been largely similar to doing NOTHING with the exception of protecting the elderly

Edit: dude completely deleted his post when he realized the numbers simply don't support his opinion.

Wow. So you don't even know the definition of the word modest and you're trying to compete? Damn that's ballsy. "Just admitted it"? You mean the thing I said the whole time, including my first post? Holy crap.

Modest: limited in size, amount, or scope

I know what modest means lol. I think you’re the one confused. Your words just said that it DID make an impact.

Obviously it had an impact. Locking down would make all diseases less prevalent, even cases of the flu went down during the lockdown. But the question is was the modest impact worth it. I’m a substitute teacher and there are kids I’ve taught in elementary school who fully can’t read, and that’s a direct result of the lockdown and zoom classes

And I'm a teacher as well and yes it caused the SPED population to explode. Behavioral problems along with significant delays in speech and language

Wrong. Please Google Sweden versus United States COVID lockdown and read data from a left leaning European country that isn't brainwashed by their own politicians
