We’ve seen any number of COVID narratives change over time, largely in response to reality disproving “The Science™.”

Recall that lockdowns were supposed to “flatten the curve,” providing time for governments to build up capacity to alleviate pressure on overwhelmed hospitals. But outside of a few isolated areas for brief periods, hospitals were effectively never overwhelmed.

Yet lockdowns persisted regardless, and the stated goals and motivations seamlessly shifted to vague, arbitrary, impossible hopes of ending transmission.

Masks were also supposed to effectively eliminate the risk of transmission with enough public compliance. Yet that proved to be hopelessly false through multiple randomized controlled trials and mountains of observational evidence.

Masks Are Useless In The Real World, Massive New Study Confirms

It was a truth universally acknowledged pre-2020 that masks didn’t prevent the spread of respiratory viruses. That truth was confirmed repeatedly in randomized controlled studies, summarized in journal articles, and used to inform pandemic planning documents from health agencies like the CDC, the World Health Organization (WHO) and the United Kingdom’s Health Services Agency.

As those expectations were proven wrong, messaging on masks shifted dramatically too.

Similarly, the “experts,” uh…revised…their thinking on COVID vaccines over time as the initial claims were shown to be demonstrably, catastrophically false. “They’ll stop all transmission, vaccinated people become dead ends for the virus” shifted to “they stop you from getting sick” which became “you’ll get sick, but it won’t be severe,” to “it may be severe, but you won’t die.”

Turns out, a new study likely contradicts even that. Score another win for The Science™.
