Gone viral : how covid drove the world insane / Justin Hart. by Hart, Justin (Executive consultant), author. Washington D.C. : Regnery Publishing, [2022] Subjects COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020 -- Political aspects -- United States.   COVID-19 Pandemic, 2020- -- Psychological aspects -- United States. ISBN:  9781684513512 (hardcover) : 1684513510 Description:  xvi, 302 pages ; 24 cm Requests:  0 Summary:  "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!"--   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Hawaii State Library Social Science & Philosophy 362.19624 Ha Checked In Add Copy to MyList
