Johns Hopkins University Researchers Determine COVID Lockdowns ‘Had Little to No Public Health Effects’ While Causing ‘Enormous Economic and Social Costs’

They found in their research released in the Jan. 2022 edition of Studies in Applied Economics that lockdowns during the initial weeks and months of the pandemic only reduced COVID mortality by a mere 0.2 percent. They analyzed many different scientific studies to come to their conclusion.

“We find no evidence that lockdowns, school closures, border closures, and limiting gatherings have had a noticeable effect on COVID-19 mortality,” wrote researchers Jonas Herby, Lars Jonung and Steve H. Hanke, who authored the study.
They also found that the lockdowns had “devastating effects” on the economic and social well-being of the public as the masses fell hard to the mass hysteria propaganda.
