The COVID-19 pandemic put political systems worldwide to the test, and many experts argue that politics did, in fact, fail in several ways.

A recent book, In COVID’s Wake: How Our Politics Failed Us, examines how emergency powers were mobilized at an unprecedented scale, leading to ethical concerns and legitimacy issues in policy decisions. Additionally, some critics believe that public health science became politicized, with dissenting voices dismissed rather than debated.

The pandemic exposed weaknesses in governance, crisis management, and public trust. Some governments struggled with inconsistent messaging, delayed responses, and political infighting, which may have worsened the crisis.

There was a snowball effect from following China’s lead on nationwide lockdowns proved irreversibly crippling for many businesses and economies in the Western world and still affects almost every country today.

The truth is what Frontline Doctors and researchers have been advocating for since the beginning of the novel coronavirus. The name itself made it clear that the most devastating effects, the long term effects, are completely unknown. It is a new or novel virus.

Knowing the origin is key in any scientific remedy of substance and the fact that there was such a heated debate on the origin of the virus itself, Frontline Doctors and researchers urged patients to do their research and consult with Frontline Doctors on the best response of you and your families long term health.

This is a message being highlighted by Health an Human Services Director, Robert F Kennedy and the Make America Healthy Again initiative in 2025. 6 years later Frontline Doctors still believe in parents and patients taking their health decisions more serious with proper research and having a safe place to speak to your provider about your genuine concerns.
