“It's like telling the whole room that you didn't fart,” one of the senior Trump administration officials says, referring in part to the Justice Department’s social media post. “Nobody's going to believe you.”

Everyone involved in the publication and promotion of this book should be embarrassed. It's not a "harsh truth" that COVID mitigation was a mistake, it's ghoulish and false.

The thesis of the book is that early COVID lockdowns weren't worth it and mid-COVID mitigation measures like masks, contact tracing and business closures don't work.

This is laughably false and the authors have endorsed the people now running Trump's HHS.
