https://www.pewresearch.org/politics/20 ... -religion/Of course conservatives and contrarians don't like this, and insist that there's a liberal bias or maybe these scientists are shills of Big Pharma etc.. But fundamentally right-wing ideas are just empirically wrong.
The red states that took an "open the economy and let it rip" approach to COVID had disastrous results. Human-caused climate change is a fact and the biggest crisis humanity faces today. Tough on crime policies are not effective in reducing crime etc.Simplistic slogans like "if you implement gun control, only criminals will have guns" just doesn't jive with an evidence-based approach.The problem ultimately lies with conservatives, not scientists.
so scientists are the only people of value?
The red states that took an "open the economy and let it rip" approach to COVID had disastrous results...Deaths per capitaAccording to COVID-19 data, Wyoming, Utah, South Dakota, and North Dakota are among the top ten states with the lowest COVID-19 deaths per 100,000 people. These numbers are a representation of several other factors and policies but they do show that lockdowns did not greatly impact COVID-19 outcomes. States with the highest COVID-19 deaths per 100,000 people were among the ones with the most restrictive shutdown rules.
Economic performanceThe same is true economically, as to be logically expected.
As illustrated in the AIER article,
Alongside having a poor correlation with any sort of desirable health outcomes, states that avoided stay at home orders also fared far better economically than those that embraced them. Provided below are unemployment numbers from July 2019 and July 2020 from the
Bureau of Labor Statistics. Despite COVID-19’s role in the decline of the fossil fuel industry which is a key component in states like
North Dakota and Wyoming that didn’t issue stay at home orders, they still managed to maintain better employment rates than many states that did lock down.The rest of the states that didn’t issue stay at home orders (
Utah, South Dakota, Nebraska, Iowa, and Arkansas) fared just as well if not better than other states. In particular, Utah and Nebraska did extraordinarily well maintaining a 4.5% and 4.8% unemployment rate, respectively while keeping death rates low.In contrast, pro-lockdown states like
New York, California, and Massachusetts saw catastrophic unemployment numbers, 15.9%, 13.3%, and 16.1% respectively, alongside high COVID-19 death rates.
