About this episode
Do lockdowns work? Do masks? What have we learned about what government actions help prevent the spread of COVID-19, and which don't? As public health officials and the media sound the alarm about the omicron variant of COVID-19, the answers to those questions are crucial. Alex Berenson, a former New York Times reporter and author of the new book " Pandemia: How Coronavirus Hysteria Took Over Our Government, Rights, and Lives ," joins "The Daily Signal Podcast" to answer all those questions and more, drawing on data from various states and countries.
