.EricMGarcia: Biden's Covid policies have left millions of Americans once again feeling abandoned and demoralized.
on Friday, there’s still a heavy focus from the administration on making vaccination and masking a matter of personal responsibility instead of taking more collective mitigation efforts such as requiring adequate ventilation of indoor spaces. Thus, U.S. policy has essentially made contracting Covid-19 a matter of morality.
Disabled and chronically ill people who run the risk of becoming seriously ill or dying may feel like the losers in this morality contest or feel that their infections are the “” Cardona was referring to when speaking of the complications of keeping schools open. There is a word associated with making health a morality play: eugenics.
Mentioning eugenics is sure to rankle some readers because it evokes the horrors of Nazi Germany and the Holocaust. But eugenics, which is rooted in the idea that the human gene pool can and should be improved, is often evoked during pandemics.
That’s why hearing that omicron is milder or more benign doesn’t put at ease people who have disabilities or chronic illnesses or organ transplant recipients who often need immunosuppressant drugs so their bodies won’t reject their transplanted organs. Dr. Dorry Segev, a transplant surgeon at Johns Hopkins University,
that he doesn’t think predictions that the omicron variant is more benign are “very hopeful.” He said, “If you’re immunocompromised, you’re the one for whom it’s not going to be benign.”
