I am referring, of course, to the Ivy League, which creates folks like Emily Oster (graduated from Harvard, faculty at Brown).
She caught a lot of flack, first for suggesting that we should not sent anti-retroviral drugs to treat AIDS in Africa because it was not economically while cherry-picking data to justify this, and her creation of a whole apparatus to get kids back to school because, "Kids don't get Covid," ignoring dead teachers, and when it proved that Covid kills kids too, she moved to social and educational consequences.
To the degree that she has contributed to an environment where the, "Everyone should get Covid," nuts have prevailed in the public discourse, she bears a direct responsibility for more than a million excess deaths in the United States, and more than 20 million deaths worldwide, she should be criticized for her sacrifice of those people on the alter of expedience.
Well, it would be, except for the fact that she comes from the right family, which means that criticism of her is worse than anything, as exemplified by an article titled, "Might “Vitriolic Attacks” Against Emily Oster Rival COVID’s Carnage?."
So, basically, any sort of criticism, or even worse consequences, for the elites is worse than the Holocaust.
Ignore the deaths, or the evidence that Covid causes long term health problems and cognitive deficits in both children and adults, the real injustice here is people calling Emily Oster out on various social media.
Don't worry about Ms. Oster in any case, she is doing fine, and selling all natural drinks for kids with Michelle Obama.
