President-elect Donald J. Trump said on Tuesday evening that he had selected Dr. Jay Bhattacharya, a Stanford physician and economist whose authorship of an anti-lockdown treatise during the coronavirus pandemic made him a central figure in a bitter public health debate, to be the director of the National Institutes of Health.

“Together, Jay and RFK Jr. will restore the NIH to a Gold Standard of Medical Research as they examine the underlying causes of, and solutions to, America’s biggest health challenges, including our Crisis of Chronic Illness and Disease,” Mr. Trump wrote on social media, referring to Robert F. Kennedy Jr., his choice to lead the N.I.H.’s parent agency, the Department of Health and Human Services.


I hope Trump causes a civil war.

So much winning.
 
Good first step, but really at this point we need a constitutional amendment laying out a very strict system for emergency powers with detailed subsection on quarantine, contagious disease, and vaccines.

Logic dictates a rare limited context where forcing a vaccine could possibly be moral or practical and that needs to be set in stone. No more of this "take the widely available vaccine to protect your neighbor who could also take the vaccine... also you can still spread the disease with the vaccine so your neighbor is still screwed".

Basically what I'm saying is that quarantine is basically a boolean and as if history and science weren't enough we now have personal experience as to the utter uselessness of an incomplete quarantine aka a lockdown.

New rule: The only time government can do anything like a quarantine is a full absolute quarantine, it cannot last longer than it takes for everyone in the zone to no longer be infectious, and if the government lies or is "mistaken" about the severity of the disease government official personally face consequences.

Would that make officials afraid to call a quarantine? Yes, good. They should be afraid. They should be so freaking scared of the disease that they are absolutely sure that in the aftermath the people will agree that a quarantine was necessary.
