MINSK, 6 December (BelTA) – The US Congress Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic has completed a two-year investigation and released a final report titled “After Action Review of the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Lessons Learned and a Path Forward”. The report was posted on the subcommittee’s official website.
“Since February 2023, the Select Subcommittee has sent more than 100 investigative letters, conducted more than 30 transcribed interviews and depositions, held 25 hearings and meetings, and reviewed more than one million pages of documents. Members and staff have exposed high-level corruption in America’s public health system, confirmed the most likely origin of the pandemic, held COVID-19 bad actors publicly accountable, fostered bipartisan consensus on consequential pandemic-era issues, and more,” the article reads.
The authors concluded that mask mandates were unnecessary. “There was no conclusive evidence that masks effectively protected Americans from COVID-19. Public health officials flipped-flopped on the efficacy of masks without providing Americans scientific data - causing a massive uptick in public distrust,” the report reads.
Prolonged lockdowns caused significant damage to the American economy. They contributed to staggering inflation and unemployment.
“Prolonged lockdowns caused immeasurable harm to the mental and physical health of Americans, with a particularly negative effect on younger citizens. Rather than prioritizing the protection of the most vulnerable populations, federal and state government policies forced millions of Americans to forgo crucial elements of a healthy and financially sound life,” the authors argue.
What’s more, the scientists believe that the choice of methods to combat COVID-19 was politically motivated.
