Some of Illinois’ gubernatorial candidates are getting their stance on record about whether COVID-19 vaccines should be mandated to attend public school. An advisory panel with the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention approved adding COVID-19 vaccines to the list of child vaccines for the 2023 schedule. “States establish vaccine requirements for school children,…

The Economic Disaster of the Pandemic Response
Commentary On April 15, 2020, a full month after the President’s fateful news conference that greenlighted lockdowns to be enacted by the states for “15 Days to Flatten the Curve,” Donald Trump had a revealing White House conversation with Anthony Fauci, the head of the National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Disease who had already…
Why Fauci Can’t Whitewash His Disastrous Legacy
Commentary This week, ABC News reporter Jonathan Karl asked Dr. Anthony Fauci, the soon-departing head of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, if it was a “mistake” for schools to be shuttered as long as they were during the COVID pandemic. “We should realize, and have realized,” Fauci answered, “that there will be…

Revolt of the Donors
Commentary It happened again last night. I spoke to a gentleman who is—or was—a high-dollar donor to the prestigious medical school from which he graduated. He felt gratitude toward them and gave generously for many years and ever more as he had the means. But this medical school during the last three years did nothing…
Why Is Mainstream Media Pushing More Disease Panic?
Commentary A new variant, new boosters, new mandates, new exhortations to mask up and stay safe. Will it ever end? Not if the New York Times gets its way.

The Pink-Collar Worker Crisis
Commentary The first time I heard the phrase “pink collar worker” was two days ago from The Atlantic, which published fascinating data on what it describes as mass burnout among nurses, childcare workers, teachers, and other women-dominated professions. The phrase itself dates from the 1970s—the female version of “blue collar” one supposes—and I’m oddly surprised…

Last September, Biden announced that he was mandating COVID vaccines for all 10 million healthcare workers in America — as well as for any American working for a company employing more than a hundred people. In a televised evening speech, he announced, “My job as president is to protect all Americans.” Actually, his oath of…
It Ends as It Began: As a Political Ploy
Commentary The current U.S. president finally said it during a 60 Minutes interview: “The pandemic is over.” Though obviously true by the classical definition, Biden’s comment seemed almost accidental, said as an echoed response to a direct question. Consider, however, that many times as many people die from COVID daily in the United States (300-400) than when…
