Science, Politics, and COVID: Will Truth Prevail?

February 2021 • Volume 50, Number 2 • Scott W. Atlas 

Scott W. Atlas Hoover Institution

The COVID pandemic…

First, I have been shocked at the unprecedented exertion of power by the government since last March—issuing unilateral decrees, ordering the closure of businesses, churches, and schools, restricting personal movement, mandating behavior, and suspending indefinitely basic freedoms. Second, I was and remain stunned—almost frightened—at the acquiescence of the American people to such destructive, arbitrary, and wholly unscientific rules, restrictions, and mandates.

That is the goal of public health policy—to minimize all harms, not simply to stop a virus at all costs.

This is the reality: those who insist that universal mask usage has absolutely proven effective at controlling the spread of the COVID virus and is universally recommended according to “the science” are deliberately ignoring the evidence to the contrary. It is they who are propagating false and misleading information.

Stanford’s Jay Bhattacharya has said that “mask mandates are not supported by the scientific data. . . . There is no scientific evidence that mask mandates work to slow the spread of the disease.”

At this point, one could make a reasonable case that those who continue to push societal restrictions without acknowledging their failures and the serious harms they caused are themselves putting forth dangerous misinformation.

With social media acting as the arbiter of allowable discussion, and with continued censorship and cancellation of those with views challenging the “accepted narrative,” the United States is on the verge of losing its cherished freedoms. It is not at all clear whether our democratic republic will survive—but it is clear it will not survive unless more people begin to step up in defense of freedom of thought and speech.

IN THE COURT OF APPEAL 

OF THE STATE OF CALIFORNIA 

Sixth District 

THE INNS BY THE SEA, Appellant, 

v. 

CALIFORNIA MUTUAL INSURANCE CO., Appellee. 

On Appeal from the Superior Court for Monterey County 

Hon. Lydia M. Villareal 

Case No. 20CV001274 

APPELLANT’S OPENING BRIEF 

December 23, 2020 

STATEMENT OF THE CASE 

The Inns by the Sea (“Inns”) purchased an “all-risk” standard form insurance policy from Insurer California Mutual Insurance Co. to protect itself from “direct physical loss of or damage to” its property. When COVID-19 struck, and governmental stay-in-place orders were issued, like many small businesses, Inns was forced to close, incurring substantial and continuing loss. Reasonably believing its loss was covered because (1) COVID-19 on site caused “damage,” as well as (2) COVID-19 and/or the governmental stay-in-place orders prevented the property from being used for its intended purpose and thereby caused substantial “loss,” Inns timely submitted an insurance claim and sought coverage. 

In the litigation below, the trial court granted California Mutual’s motion to dismiss, providing no reasoning in its order. In doing so, the trial court mistakenly failed to apply long-standing California rules of policy interpretation: that every term in an insurance policy be accorded a meaning, and where standard form policy terms are subject to multiple reasonable constructions, a court must accept the construction that achieves the purpose of the transaction – providing insurance. 

California courts, like courts across the country, construe ambiguities in favor of coverage because it is “the insurer [that] typically drafts policy language, leaving the insured little or no meaningful opportunity or ability to bargain for modifications.”1 Said another way, the insurer carries the heavy burden of proving that the insured’s construction is unreasonable. Inns alleged there was a “continuing and increasing presence of the coronavirus on Plaintiff’s property and/or around its premises.” (1 AA 21 ¶ 21.) This is sufficient to establish “damage” under any construction of the term — a lethal substance invaded Inns’ properties, rendering them unfit for human use. And Inns alleged that it was “forced to cease operations based on orders issued from both the County of Monterey and the County of San Mateo … issued in direct response to … dangerous physical conditions,” caused by COVID-19 (1 AA 21 ¶ 20), causing “loss” under any definition of that term. Having satisfied both the “loss” and “damage” requirements, Inns showed two separate and distinct bases for securing coverage. 

Here, the only reasonable meanings of “loss” or “damage” support coverage. But Inns need not prove this — it is California Mutual that must prove Inns’ construction is unreasonable. Not only is California Mutual unable to do so based on the plain meaning of the words, its position is undermined by (1) other language in the policy that clearly signifies virus-related losses are covered, (2) its failure to use exclusions specifically designed to exclude virus-related losses (1 AA 21 ¶ 17), and (3) decisions by other courts that agree with Inns’ construction, rendering it reasonable per se. 

Nor can California Mutual carry its high burden to invoke any exclusion. Exclusions must be construed narrowly, and none apply to the facts here. California Mutual’s arguments on the ordinance or law, loss of use, and acts or decisions exclusions also would, among other things, render certain coverages illusory and must be rejected for these reasons as well. In short, California Mutual bears a heavy burden in conclusively establishing there is no potential for coverage and falls far short of carrying this burden. The trial court erred in granting California Mutual’s motion to dismiss, and Inns respectfully requests that this ruling of dismissal be reversed.

CONCLUSION 

As the drafter of the Policy, seeking dismissal at the earliest stage of the litigation, California Mutual was tasked with conclusively establishing that there was no possibility of coverage under the Policy. This required that California Mutual show that (1) its interpretation is the only reasonable interpretation; and (2) even under its interpretation, the allegations would not create a possibility of coverage. For the reasons set forth above, California Mutual did not meet this burden. As a result, Inns respectfully requests that this Court reverse the Superior Court’s judgment and remand for decision on the remaining issues or to allow Inns to amend its Complaint.

,,,most people living in the United States today—certainly more than half—are not Americans in any meaningful sense of the term.


I’m really referring to the many native-born people—some of whose families have been here since the Mayflower—who may technically be citizens of the United States but are no longer (if they ever were) Americans. They do not believe in, live by, or even like the principles, traditions, and ideals that until recently defined America as a nation and as a people. It is not obvious what we should call these citizen-aliens, these non-American Americans; but they are something else.


What is actually required now is a recovery, or even a refounding, of America as it was long and originally understood but which now exists only in the hearts and minds of a minority of citizens.

GREAT AMERICA

Follow The ‘Science,’ They Said

As a general rule, the next time an official, a politician, or an expert lectures us on the “science,” make sure that he is not projecting his own unscientific biases onto others.

By Victor Davis Hanson March 21, 2021

In truth, leftists and Democrats have become the purveyors of superstition. Their creation of a fantasy world is not because they do not believe in science per se, but because they believe more in the primacy of ideology that should shape and warp science in the proper fashion for the greater good.

“Science” is used to denigrate a perceived enemy of the people, and ignored to enhance a guardian of the flock.

In truth, our woke officials pay little attention to science.

No. 19-7132
CHRISTIANA TAH AND RANDOLPH MCCLAIN, APPELLANTS
v.
GLOBAL WITNESS PUBLISHING, INC. AND GLOBAL WITNESS, APPELLEES
Opinion dissenting in part filed by Senior Circuit Judge SILBERMAN. (pages 19-41)

The increased power of the press is so dangerous today because we are very close to one-party control of these institutions. Our court was once concerned about the institutional consolidation of the press leading to a “bland and homogenous” marketplace of ideas. See Hale v. FCC, 425 F.2d 556, 562 (D.C. Cir. 1970) (Tamm, J., concurring). It turns out that ideological consolidation of the press (helped along by economic consolidation) is the far greater threat.

Two of the three most influential papers (at least historically), The New York Times and The Washington Post, are virtually Democratic Party broadsheets. And the news section of The Wall Street Journal leans in the same direction. The orientation of these three papers is followed by The Associated Press and most large papers across the country (such as the Los Angeles Times, Miami Herald, and Boston Globe). Nearly all television—network and cable—is a Democratic Party trumpet. Even the government-supported National Public Radio follows along.

As has become apparent, Silicon Valley also has an enormous influence over the distribution of news. And it similarly filters news delivery in ways favorable to the Democratic Party.

Of course, I do not take a position on the legality of big tech’s behavior. Some emphasize these companies are private and therefore not subject to the First Amendment. Yet—even if correct— it is not an adequate excuse for big tech’s bias. The First Amendment is more than just a legal provision: It embodies the most important value of American Democracy. Repression of political speech by large institutions with market power therefore is—I say this advisedly—fundamentally un-American. As one who lived through the McCarthy era, it is hard to fathom how honorable men and women can support such actions. One would hope that someone, in any institution, would emulate Margaret Chase Smith.

There can be little question that the overwhelming uniformity of news bias in the United States has an enormous political impact.

It should be borne in mind that the first step taken by any potential authoritarian or dictatorial regime is to gain control of communications, particularly the delivery of news. It is fair to conclude, therefore, that one-party control of the press and media is a threat to a viable democracy. It may even give rise to countervailing extremism. The First Amendment guarantees a free press to foster a vibrant trade in ideas. But a biased press can distort the marketplace. And when the media has proven its willingness—if not eagerness—to so distort, it is a profound mistake to stand by unjustified legal rules that serve only to enhance the press’ power.

Public Statement on the Hunter Biden Emails
October 19, 2020

Immediately after The Post published its first story about Hunter Biden’s business dealings in Ukraine that traded on his influence with his father, these career spies and propagandists, led by Obama CIA Director and serial liar John Brennan, published a letter asserting that the appearance of these Biden documents “has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”

NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE COUNCIL
INTELLIGENCE COMMUNITY ASSESSMENT
10 March 2021
Foreign Threats to the 2020 US Federal Elections

That is the critical context for the lie spread yesterday by numerous mainstream journalists. On Tuesday morning, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence declassified a short 12-page report entitled “Foreign Threats to the U.S. 2020 Elections.” 

Prior to the election, out of desperation to ensure that Biden won, they censored and maligned this reporting by mindlessly endorsing an assertion from life-long CIA operatives that never had any evidence: ignore these documents; they are Russian disinformation. They not only invoked that claim to justify ignoring the story but also to successfully agitate for its censorship by Twitter and Facebook. So they spent weeks spreading an utter lie in order to help the candidate that they favored win the election. Remember, these are journalists doing that. 

Then, yesterday, the intelligence community issued a report that does not even purport to contain any evidence: just assertions. And they all jumped to treat it as gospel: no questioning of it, no skepticism, no demands to see evidence for it, not even any notation that no evidence was provided. They just instantly enshrined claims from the CIA and NSA as Truth. 

But so much worse, in this case, they just outright lied about what the report said — just fabricated assertions that the report did not even allude to, in order to declare their lies from last October to be vindicated.

We Are All Immigrants? Not Exactly.
By Katharine A. Russell

We all are most emphatically not immigrants.

…many if not most of us are here due to nationhood and statehood initiatives born of our unique, federal approach to governance. Notwithstanding Ellis Island and the historic influx of Irish, Italians, Poles and others, our origins as a people are complicated and transactional but, above all, constitutional.

Is The Pandemic Over?
By Thomas T. Siler, M.D.

…if most populations have 20-50% pre-existing immunity from prior Coronavirus infections and the actual numbers of COVID-19 infections are much higher (3.5 to 20 times higher), then we could be approaching herd immunity (which is guessimated at 70%) now, even with our current low level of vaccination. If you make those calculations for the United States, then 45 to 90% of the American population could be immune now.

Dr. Mike Yeadon, a former Pfizer scientist with 30 years of experience in immunology, says the pandemic effectively ended, even before we began to vaccinate people. Dr. Marty Makary wrote in a recent article in the WSJ that he feels herd immunity could come by April and also be in effect before we have vaccinated “everyone.” Both these scientists came to this conclusion by saying that more people have already been infected (up to 150 million for the U.S.) already and there was pre-existing immunity at some level for a portion of the population.

The pandemic can be managed with a more targeted approach and the healthy can go on with their lives with less restriction. The pandemic, indeed, may finally be coming to a close.

Mask Mandates Do Not Save Lives
By Spike Hampson

The question is, "Do states with mask mandates have lower COVID-19 death rates than states with no mandate?"

States with a mask mandate: 13.0 deaths per 10,000 population.

States with no mask mandate: 12.6 deaths per 10,000 population.

The impotence of mask mandates is particularly sobering since they usually proceed in lockstep with the other mandated actions intended to control the virus: hand-washing, social distancing, and lockdowns. Since all four control tactics are chasing the same goal (stop the spread of the virus), these data revealing the ineffectiveness of masks may suggest that the other three control tactics are less effective than hoped.

Lockdowns as class warfare of the rich and the professional class against the working class
By Thomas Lifson

Martin Kulldorff

No. Thinking that everyone must be vaccinated is as scientifically flawed as thinking that nobody should. COVID vaccines are important for older high-risk people, and their care-takers. Those with prior natural infection do not need it. Nor children.

America's progressives, when forced to choose between strengthening arbitrary state power and protecting the lower-income working classes, seems to choose government power. Why is it that Republican governors like DeSantis do a better job of protecting the welfare the working class than Democrats like Andrew Cuomo?

January 6 Narrative Collapse: Assault Charges Spell Problems for DOJ, FBI in Officer Sicknick Case
March 17, 2021

revolver.news

The Justice Department ‘s own presumably authoritative website press release stipulates only the charge of assault with a “dangerous weapon“:

Like Wiley Coyote running over a cliff and not yet looking down to realize how unmoored his sprint has become from reality, cartoonish speculation continues to support The Narrative in place of actual evidence or a legal allegation from the Justice Department.

The left-wing postmodern idea of “truth” as a mere pick-and-choose official narrative is now normal

The Legends of Our Fall
The left-wing postmodern idea of “truth” as a mere pick-and-choose official narrative is now normal.

By Victor Davis Hanson March 14, 2021

…some untruths become either “noble lies” that serve communitarian purposes or canonized lies that would cause too much collateral damage if exposed.

The lie, or at least an unproven “truth,” soon becomes so institutionalized that the effort to challenge, or even modify it, is seen as corrective medicine far worse than the disease of the lie.

Legends become fact, and lies become truth on the basis of their service to a cause.

In our upside-down world, the smeared “liar” is the revealer of such fraud. And sadly the deified “truth-teller” is in truth the abettor of falsity.

And all this is the work of amoral “moralists.”

Today's Democrats Embody 'Neanderthal Thinking' & Democrat Hypocrisy: Capitol Wall for Me, No Southern Border Wall for Thee

Today's Democrats Embody 'Neanderthal Thinking'
By Trevor Thomas

In spite of what Joe Biden would have us believe, since the Wuhan virus entered the U.S., it has been Democrats who have burdened millions of Americans with a mountain of Neanderthal thinking. Take the immoral and unnecessary lockdowns, the useless masks, school closings, cases and hospitalizations, and so on — in order to cling to their COVID authoritarianism, Democrats have repeatedly ignored science and the data. In other words, tragically, the Wuhan virus crisis again reveals who are the real Neanderthal thinkers in America.

Democrat Hypocrisy: Capitol Wall for Me, No Southern Border Wall for Thee
By Lauri B. Regan

More recently, Democrats have stepped into the untenable position of insisting on spending hundreds of millions of dollars on a seemingly permanent (and hideous) fence around the Capitol Building while defunding and shutting down construction of our southern border wall. The rationale is clear: lawmakers require protection from American citizens, including all of their constituents, who are no longer permitted to exercise their First Amendment right to petition the government. On the other hand, American citizens, in the infinite wisdom of the Democrats, do not require, nor are they entitled to, protection from illegal aliens who are streaming into the country in numbers we have not seen in a long time.

Fauci was ‘blind to the harms of the lockdowns' that didn't work anyway, says Stanford doctor

Fauci was ‘blind to the harms of the lockdowns' that didn't work anyway, says Stanford doctor

As Dr. Jay Bhattacharya contends that lockdowns have brought more harm than good, a new CDC report shows mask mandates, in-person dining have only modest effects on COVID case and death numbers.

In Bhattacharya's view, Biden administration chief medical advisor Anthony Fauci and other top public health officials have failed to view the risks to a subset of the U.S. population in the indispensable context of risks to the larger population produced by drastic mitigation policies like socially and economically stultifying lockdowns that blanketed much of the country over the past year.


Mask mandates were associated with decreases in daily COVID case growth rates and daily death growth rates of just 1.8% and 1.9%, respectively, 81-100 days after mandate implementation. Reopening restaurants for in-person dining, meanwhile, was associated with increases in daily case and death growth rates of, respectively, 1.1% and 3% after 81-100 days.

Why Democrats are scared, House Democrats pass bill to change American voting forever & Cancel Culture: Its Origins and Implications for America

Why Democrats are scared
By Patricia McCarthy 

The frightening thing about all this is how many Americans have fallen for the show and all its production values — the lockdowns, mask mandates, the vaccine, every new reason to continue all the nonsense. It's all been a sort of mass hypnosis, something like the Salem Witch Trials (1692).

Democrats "elected" a corrupt man, a plagiarist, a liar, and a traitor who is selling us out to China, and they expect us all to be onboard? They are alarmed at our intransigence. We are horrified by their pride, their alarm at our resistance and their blatant treason. Beginning with the Russia hoax, clearly a coup attempt, and their current plan to transform the U.S. into a submissive member of a one-world government in which we are meant to be the cash cow, their pride must be their downfall.

House Democrats pass bill to change American voting forever
By Andrea Widburg

In D.C., the continued presence of the National Guard shows that the Democrats are frightened. They fear that people who feel that they don't have a truly representative government will make themselves heard by other means. If the Democrats continue with this mad plan to destroy voter integrity, they will become increasingly fearful of the American people. It creates a volatile situation when the government fears the people because the government knows that it has done wrong

Cancel Culture: Its Origins and Implications for America
By Scott S. Powell 

The starting point of protecting our freedoms and expanding opportunity in America is to refuse to accept or facilitate forces that are clearly associated with repression and tyranny. Even when our political factions and differences make it difficult to build a consensus, the first rule is “do no harm.” When we recognize clear patterns of practices that have been an integral part of the most destructive political systems in human history, Americans can’t afford to be fooled. Cancel culture and censorship have no place in the United States.
