Sacks argues lockdowns continue without justification since hospitals never became overwhelmed as originally feared.
“I mean, the original reason for the lockdowns was to buy us time so that the hospitals wouldn't become overwhelmed like Italy.”
Sacks says both sides are politicized: lockdown advocates want indefinite restrictions, opponents refuse even masks.
“Well, nowhere in the country did the hospitals get overwhelmed and we're still in these lockdowns. And so, you know, I think that it's long overdue for it to end.”
Sacks advocates ending lockdowns while wearing masks, a position hard to find on political spectrum.
“So, you know, I come out on this thing is that I think we should end lockdowns but wear masks.”
