So given all of the panic over what people were seeing in the first few months, what would you have them do?
Well, education and rationality would have eliminated that panic early on. But the uneducated, easily panicked sheep had the ear of government and media officials.

This board was littered with horror stories in the early days. It's like everyone conveniently forgot.
No, not many hoarded anything and, as you seem to conveniently forget, that the board was filled with posts stating the irrational behavior and "guidance" being published by the COV-19 lunatics.

I had COVID in December for the first time. Very mild, back to normal exercise in 3 days, mild headache, low grade fever for two. That's it. BUT I tested myself until tested negative because of an elderly relative we were planning to visit when no longer shedding virus. 15 days later I tested negative for the first time (testing daily for the last 4 days).
They can change the recs, but you shed virus for 10+_ days, regardless of the CDC, and at levels that are infectious to others for most of that time. People are still having major morbidity, some young with pulmonary emboli, this week as this is released.

Frick these people. They have lost all respect and credibility.

That’s cause it was NEVER a novel virus, it was a synthesized, genetically engineered virus. The health “professionals” were out there chasing their own tails and pontificating as if they were the alpha & omega. When in reality their superiors knew exactly what this was and still abetted the lie that it was zoonotic.
I said from day one it was engineered. All of the signs pointed to that fact. That does not make it any less "novel" and unknown to the immune system of every person on the planet at the time it got out.

Explain how I'm incorrect. There were basically two sides to most arguments around Covid: This or that would work or it wouldn't. Some people were going to be wrong.

The average person in this country is very poorly educated, and most of them are incapable of educating themselves, especially where science is concerned. Reading random Facebook posts and articles from fringe media outlets is not the same as educating one's self. Both sides of the argument had PLENTY of uneducated morons parroting their beliefs and theories as absolute fact throughout (and it's clearly still happening).

This turn didn't happen until a couple of months in. In December 2019 and going into the new year, it was totally different. And if you don't think people were hoarding en masse, you didn't try buying groceries during the early months of the pandemic. The realization that few people ever washed their hands on a regular basis prior to Covid was disturbing.

So you wish to argue that now that something is over, we don't have a better view of the mistakes and overreaches made during the period when it was an active situation? Going for the "I told you so" angle on something that was a fluid situation for months? You predicted the future from your armchair. That's cool.

No. I used common sense. Don’t blame me if you couldn’t do the same.

It didn't take a genius to see that shutting down the economy for a virus was a bad idea.
Not to mention the flawed studies, hell the original simulation that predicted 2 million dead (which was nowhere close from day 1) couldn't be replicated because the software was trash, even after Microsoft tried to fix the code up.
And of course, the flu just "went away. "
Utter fricking bullshite.

They started with the most restrictive measures they could and decided it best to loosen those as they figured out more along the way.
horseshite. Shutting down entire types of businesses while leaving places like Walmart and Home Depot open never made any sense. I can’t go get a haircut but I can go to Walmart? I can’t go to a park or beach but it’s ok to go to Lowe’s for some new roses? It’s not ok for me to attend a funeral or see my dying grandpa at a nursing home but it’s just fine to go Kroger?

Yup. Covid was likely the single biggest hoax we’ll ever see in our lifetimes. The negative impact will be seen for generations to come.

It was fairly clear a few months into the charade that the vast majority of healthy people had nothing to worry about.

My family (who are dependent on me) are more important to me than being able to virtue signal on TigerDroppings. None of my kids have the shot and will stay that way, but I got one dose of J&J so I could keep my job

Is it because no one was doing it? This is so 2021.

All planned and perfectly carried out by the CIA, CCP and the Democrats to prevent Trump from winning. B they would murder their own families for power.

I'd imagine those folks were thinking they wanted to keep putting food on the table. You and the others who have that take just sound moronic.
There is plenty to be pissed off about in regards to the Covid response. Acting somehow better than someone, or deriding them, because they made a decision to effectively keep their job (during a time when the job market wasn't exactly on fire) isn't one of those things. You do you, though.

The last time my father got to see my mother was in hospice and they wouldn't let him in because Covid, so he went to the local Home Depot and bought a full painters suit with the respirators and they let him in looking like a fricking astronaut to see his wife for the last time.
