The Shutdowns
More evidence that they were useless.
[Update a few minutes later]
Public ignorance about the virus is nothing short of stunning.
Herd Immunity From T-Cells
A pre-print on it. It looks encouraging.
The Biggest Leftist Casualty Of The Virus
The left’s Gramscian march took decades. Trump and the virus swept through the institutions in a few months. Good riddance.
The Restaurant Industry
The pandemic (and often stupid response to it) is on the verge of destroying it.
I have to confess that I wouldn’t miss it all that much, except when I travel. I can prepare my own food much healthier, and much lower cost.

Cuomo
Baby, please come back.
This virus has been like a wildfire, sweeping through education, academia, and blue cities. It took technological and social trends that were already happening, and rapidly accelerated them, and now they’re smoldering ashes. I don’t think any of them will ever be the same again. And that’s not a bad thing.

And a depressing post from Virginia Postrel about “the new normal.”
[Update a few minutes later]
In which the former editor of Reason magazine is called a “lefty Marxist.”
Hydroxychloriquine
There’s a mountain of evidence that it’s effective.
How many people have died due to this latest Trump derangement?
Mask Shaming
…causes a scuffle in Manhattan Beach. This happened just a couple miles from us.
