About this listen

For the first time in history, the world shut itself down - by choice - all for fear of a virus, COVID-19, that wasn’t well understood. The government, with the support of most Americans, ordered the closure of tens of thousands of small businesses - many never to return. Almost every school and college in the country sent its students home to finish the school year in front of a computer. Churches canceled worship services.

“Social distancing” went from a non-word to a moral obligation overnight. Moral preening on social media achieved ever new heights. The world will reopen and life will go on, but what kind of world will it be when it does? It can’t be what it was, because of what’s just happened.

Professors Jay Richards, William Briggs, and Douglas Axe take a deep dive into the crucial questions on the minds of millions of Americans during one of the most jarring and unprecedented global events in a generation.

  • What will be the total cost in dollars, lives, and livelihoods of this response from governments, on advice from science?
  • What role have national and global health organizations such as WHO played in this? To whom are they accountable?
  • What evidence do they rely on in sounding the alarm?
  • How did science bureaucrats, relying on murky data and speculative computer models, gain the power to shut down the global economy?
  • How did politicians, who know nothing of the science, decide whom to trust?

We need to know what and how it happened to keep it from ever happening again.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

This book is probably the best in-depth look into why the world locked down the way it did. It sends a clear warning for any who will listen! You will be better informed.

Why did we do it?

This is the best scientific exploration I see on how the media experts in the pharmaceutical and scientific industries hijack the American public listen to this book as soon as possible so that we do not continue to repeat the same mistakes as Americans

Must listen

Very well grounded in solid principles and critical thinking. We need a book like this for every social trend that is meant to hamper our critical thinking in order to shed more light on the truth of what is truly going on.

Better to be poor and circumspect than rich and perverted.

Excellent book

Timely and well researched. This book is written by a biologist, statistician and a priest (yes, a priest). They give very clear statistical argument for criticizing how most western governments have handled the COVID situation. They ask the questions that the media does not allow, such as “is the cure worse than the disease?” By far the most important book of the year

The most important book of the year!

True science Vs politically correct endorsed science and it's catastrophical consequences. Sane arguments when they're most needed.

Best summary of fatal expert overreach

Great book to help articulate and put feet to what I have been thinking for some time now about this pandemic.

Highly recommend

Excellent!
