Public health expert on lockdowns

 “The science behind 6 foot spacing is embarrassingly weak....The science is really not science. It's fear based and a sort of cherry picking of certain studies. It's very poor analysis….Because there was no evidence that you had to close all religious services and selectively open up other groups and other businesses. That’s just not the way the data was. Even the WHO recommended various other ways to deal with small spaces. And so I mean I just think that this was just again fear and ignorance driving public policy…. This is a completely irrational response. To lock down the playgrounds defies any science whatsoever…. somehow people seem to think, (people) that are in leadership positions, that it makes sense to be confined indoors rather than be out of doors. You don't have to be a doctor to understand that that is just completely ludicrous and then when you look at the data, even the original data out of Japan, they showed that the transmission rates were far higher by order of magnitude higher inside in confined spaces. Outdoors is far, far lower risk to get a contagious disease. This is just common sense…. locking children’s playgrounds, again we go back to the fact, these are people these leaders who insist it’s all about the science but they are doing things that are contrary to the science because there is virtually no risk to the people who would use those playgrounds.”
