America’s public health “experts” somehow overlooked the biggest crisis in recent history: the drop in life expectancy in the United States to near three-decade lows, according to recent data from the Organization for Cooperation and Economic Development.
That’s how it is! The last time Americans lived shorter average lives than they do now was in 1996.
The drop puts us among the top six decliners globally and leaves us surpassed by almost all other developed nations.
We are ranked 34th in the world in this metric, down 24 places since 2003.
That’s behind Croatia, Colombia and China.
So, while the actual basic health of Americans grew worse and worse, our best scientists demanded universal masking and vaccine mandates, shuttered our businesses, closed our schools, and left the elderly to die isolated in hospitals and nursing homes.
The “experts” demanded these measures to stop COVID.
Not only did they fail on that front, but they ended up masking what is clearly a much larger and deeper threat.
Given our high rates of alcohol consumption, something that social isolation can worsen, these measures may even have contributed to reduced life expectancy.
Worse still, a researcher doing parallel work on the issue at the OECD said the data show that “premature deaths among Americans are a much larger and older public health problem than previously believed.”
Yet as heart disease and obesity ravaged this country, our elite public health institutions shouted that “racism is a public health crisis,” made sure teenagers could receive cross-sex hormones, and handed out free needles to drug addicts.
In other words: expert opinion, once again, completely overlooked the central problem.
It’s not about kids feeling weird about their bodies.
Or people who go to the beaches without a mask.
That’s a large number of Americans dying prematurely due to general health problems.
Catastrophic errors like these are the inevitable result of politicizing science.
Real, widespread, deadly problems are ignored because they are not compelling enough to earn airtime on major networks or applause on X.
It is clear that we need new experts.
The ones we have are literally killing us
