If I may ask, where are you? Most countries actually have more restrictions than the US, as I understand it, though you wouldn't guess that from looking at New York or California, whose governors are absolute tyrants. Either way, lockdowns don't work, are unethical to boot, and the experts (by which I mean immunologists and the like) actually agree. It's too bad that we live in an age of paranoia, when he who has the jerkiest knees makes the rules.

Sort:  

I'm from the Philippines, and although we have strict lockdowns, it's really not that restrictive. Also, my impression of the US actually stemmed from what I've seen in the news so it might be a little bias. And yes, you can blame the governors of New York and California for that since the news I've watched was almost always about them, and their lockdown orders.

Yellow journalism is alive and well. "If it bleeds, it leads." Take it all with a grain of salt.
