Resumen del Editor

Data and marketing consultant and statistical sage to presidential candidates, governors, businesses, and the real powers-that-be, epidemiologists, Justin Hart catalogs in a terrifying-but-sprightly manner the folly and psychosis produced by the pandemic and diagnoses the societal destruction that the massive overresponse to the COVID virus has wreaked, as well as what can be done to stop the madness and bring the world back to a modicum of rationality.

WORST. DISEASE. EVER.

Someone broke America. In this nightmare, neighbors have turned into agoraphobes, teachers fear their students, children are muzzled, citizens are censored, dystopian fictions have become reality, and unelected officials are creating a biometric police state. Oh wait. It’s not a nightmare. It’s our daily lives!

In truth, much of this insanity didn’t start with the coronavirus pandemic (it was already latent in big government and big corporations) and it won’t end there. COVID-19’s greatest threat turned out to be … mental. All we had to fear was fear itself—and boy did some of us fear! The very idea of the virus weakened the immune system of America and revealed a decaying underbelly of confusion, panic, unease, and cowardice few of the strong ones suspected existed. What a horrible wake-up call!

In a spate of anxious dread and gleeful power-grabbing, our health overlords threw away the pandemic response handbook and tried—beyond all reason—to protect, well, everyone. From massive over-testing to universal retail plexiglass to stay-at-home orders to stay-away-from-school orders to masking mandates to vaccine mandates to some of the worst restrictions on civil liberties in American history, this is an epic story that poses big questions about America’s future as a free society.

And the odd thing is, as Justin Hart shows, the actual disease was, as pandemics go, not that threatening; most people were at minimal risk. What is really scary is the total overreaction of half the country, many governments, that lost all sense of perspective. Hart offers a hopeful prescription on how we might face the madness down and claw our way back to sanity!

Another well reasoned look into the “pandemic”

Justin did a great job selecting key points of the “pandemic” response by those in government

Would be nice to start to develop a response or to attempt to rein in the power stolen from “We the People”

Great information

Regardless of your political view, this book gives the facts, and behind the scenes information that is not often reported.

What an eye opener!!

I hope that people of all opinions will listen to this book with an open mind! There is so much to learn to make sure we never repeat the same mistakes! This book made me laugh, made me angry and made me cry. Our world went through such a mess and so much of it for no good reason. Great book!

Interesting

I would have liked to get more in to the data, stats, etc to help your argument but I enjoyed it.

Remove fear, bring back logic

Great book, easy read! Give it a chance & pass it on. Bring back freedom for your children & grandchildren. Don’t live in fear and or teach fear. If you are living in such fear, you’re not really living the life you deserve

Fantastic review of the pandemic

Fact based review of the outcomes from pandemic reactions. I’d highly recommend giving this book a listen.

Great insights

I’ve already suggested this book to many friends. A must-listen! I learned so much I!

Release of anger

This book helped me direct my anger and other emotions regarding the atrocities that occurred during Covid. Well done!!!!

A true expert analysis of the pandemic

Justin lays out the facts, and backs it up with hard facts and colorful anecdotes to drive home the point.

We were duped

I enjoyed this book not only well written, also informative. We can only hope we do a better job at expecting more from those who are in position of power, holding them accountable for taking a crisis and making it worse.
