COVID politics was a shitshow because of the noisy information being used to make "informed" decisions. No democratic politician has it in their interest to drive their local economy into the ground, as it is political suicide (as we see across Europe now).

They never cared about YOUR health, they cared about not losing a generation worth of useful working bodies.
