Commentary Traumatic times in human experience are often best understood, across cultures, through the sharing of stories. I have a few personal stories from the COVID restrictions. As a mother, daughter, and human, they illustrate to me that something is deeply wrong. First, I was furious that the daycare centers, playgrounds, and local libraries were…
3 Years With COVID-19: The Real Story and Its Connection to the Erosion of Democracy
In Pieter Bruegel’s painting “Landscape With the Fall of Icarus,” the canvas is dominated by workers going about their daily routines. A person looking at the painting must strain to find the legs of Icarus as he plunges into the sea—having flown too close to the sun—resulting in the melting of his wings, made of…

Pandemic Fantasies Hit Hard Reality
Commentary This weekend, under the auspices of Brownstone Institute, two dozen writers and scholars—lawyers, doctors, essayists, scientists—gathered to come to terms with what happened over three years. At some point, all of us realized that no one in the room is today doing anything like what we were doing three years ago. Most everyone there…

Commentary On Nov. 13, 2020, just as the vaccine was being rolled out (surely a sheer coincidence that it was just after the election), the World Health Organization (WHO) made a hugely significant change to its website. It pertained to the section on herd immunity—the concept theorizing how a new pathogen goes from pandemic to…
Who Benefitted From This Chaos?
Commentary Two years ago on this day, I posted a piece that was very hard to write. It concerned precisely who was benefiting from the lockdowns, masking, and all that was associated with it, including school and business closures and travel restrictions. As much as we would all prefer for everyone to be concerned about…

Commentary About 18 months ago, there was some chatter in Washington about a COVID commission that would examine the wild response and evaluate its good and bad features and make recommendations for the future.

News Analysis Like all truly great bureaucracies, unelected U.S. government staff members revel in adhering to nonsensical, inefficient procedures to create some semblance of order and limit autonomous decision-making. When it comes to U.S. international travel policy, President Biden’s bureaucratic army has come out in full force to accomplish absolutely nothing and avoid all responsibility….

Commentary Whenever I republish my newspaper op-eds on my Substack, I tend to introduce them with some comments on “how I really feel,” instead of the more staid language and arguments used in those pieces.
