Health care policy in the United States is one of the top issues on the minds of most Americans. This became front and center during the COVID-19 pandemic, when unprecedented demand for emergency health care supplies, technology, drugs, and personnel stressed our system and required on-the-fly mobilization strategies. As we emerge from the pandemic, issues such as innovation, health care technology, and health security are now key in both the short and long term. Senator Tim Scott and Scott Atlas, M.D. discuss what we have learned and how to move forward for implementing effective public policy.

The coronavirus pandemic is not, by the standards of the great plagues of the past, a particularly deadly disease. The plague that struck the Athens of Pericles seems to have had a much higher mortality rate, though its geographical reach was restricted.

The public health crisis and challenge of COVID-19’s impact on most of the Middle East, as on other parts of the non-Western World, has been limited. While the extent of the pandemic in Iran and Turkey has been significant, the figures cited by and for most of the Arab World have been low, certainly low when compared to the early concern that high density (in countries like Egypt and in the Gaza Strip) and weak public health systems could lead to an exponential spread of the disease.

Understanding the distinction between a problem and a fact is one of the central tenets to what Thomas Sowell dubbed “the tragic vision,” living life with the understanding that we are limited and flawed and our decisions should take those limitations into account.

We have been led to believe, first by academics, the mainstream media, and now leftist politicians including former President Barack Obama, that America is systemically racist, “tragically, painfully, maddingly normal.” The term has also been used as a modifier for homophobia, sexism, elitism, and other elements of the progressive holy grail.
