…The job these officials have is tough, given both the reckless political opposition even to vaccines and the inevitable criticism even from people who support public health measures. Still, it's so disappointing to enter 2022 with 2020 vibes, scouring for supplies, trying to make sense of official declarations that don't cohere, and wondering what to do.
The government can help us pull out of this fog, but it should always be based on being honest with the public. We aren't expecting officials to have crystal balls about everything, but we want them to empower and inform us while preparing for eventualities — good or bad. Two years is too long to still be hoping for luck to get through all this.
