COVID emergency orders are among 'greatest intrusions on civil liberties,' Justice Gorsuch says

Yeah, limiting abortion to six weeks is just an inconvenience (facepalm).

When the omicron variant surged in late 2021 and early 2022, Gorsuch was the lone justice to appear in the courtroom unmasked even as his seatmate, Justice Sonia Sotomayor, who has diabetes, reportedly did not feel safe in close quarters with people who were not wearing masks.

Based.

Judge Gorsuch is plainly correct…

COVID emergency orders are among 'greatest intrusions on civil liberties,' Justice Gorsuch says

Really judge? Some would say that your decision to limit the freedom of women over their own bodies is the greatest restriction of civil liberties...

Actually more than some - a clear majority...which will make their voices heard when voting in 2024...

What a tool.

Much of what Gorsuch says could be applied to the rule of Trump as president and his mischief since, but excoriating the measures introduced by the authorities to fight the spread of Covid comes straight out of the shine-a-light, bleach-it fantasy playbook of the the man bigly responsible for hundreds of thousands of lives lost and for giving Gorsuch the dream job of his life. Does he, or the other two, feel no shame to have been elevated to to the bench of Scotus by a life-long scofflaw and a soon to be criminally indicted ex-president? If they had any decency, they would do the right thing and resign to restore the dignity and stature of the scandal-ridden Supremes. The pot and kettle arguments from the likes of Gorsuch will become moot if the Dems do the right thing and decide to expand the court to protect the democratic rights of the American people jeopardized by the present rightwing court legislating from the bench with their phony orangealism.

"the gravest public health threat in a century". really ? what a farce !

Yeah, you know, not slavery, forced arrest of Asian Americans, removal of native Americans and their continued discrimination, refusal to get gun lobbies in check, drug epidemic caused by the government, drug epidemic caused by licensed doctors, corruption in politics backed by companies and so on. its definitely asking people to not be jerks for a while

Right! And the judges and government getting into a women's wombs or the doctor's consultantion room, or people's bedrooms, isn't an intrusion? I wonder if the people who all died think it was an intrusion. Some judges really lack any common sense or in this case any "medical or historical sense. Sadly when the dumb Americans voted they forget the president get to appoint judges. The judges must lie to get on the Supreme Court! How ironic is that!

In this case, Gorsuch is correct. If we look at the results of the actions taken by governments and compare the results, we see that those who enacted few or no restrictions (like Sweden and Japan), fared no worse (or arguably better) than those which enacted heavy regulations. The most recent studies on masks (such as that in the Cochran Report) showed they were all but pointless, and even the Danish and Bangladeshi studies performed during the pandemic showed minimal efficacy. The entire world is feeling the effects of the policies enacted by governments during the pandemic, which resulted in sky-high inflation, increases in crime, violence, and suicide, and great harm to school children who were denied proper education.

No, that is completely incorrect, that is like saying Japan demonstrates that not wearing a mask protects against covid because of the much lower lethal rates of elderly people even when there was never a mask mandate...

This is because in some countries there was never a need for heavy regulations simply because people acted responsibly without being forced to do it, or that had many other factors that limited the impact of covid, so they never had the need to impose extra measures.

The most recent studies on masks (such as that in the Cochran Report) showed they were all but pointless, 

No, they did not, they just showed that systematically choosing studies likely to underrepresent the effect of mask gives an underrepresentation of the effect.

A recent Cochrane review, limited in scope and problematic in methodology, does not show that masks do not work, despite common misreporting.

Pretending measures were useless in order to criticize using them only shows that you don't have actual arguments against them.

He's dead right.

He is absolutely correct.

Gorsuch is 100% correct.

100% correct as the expert studies show.

Wrong again 8

i was a shambles and all he usual unscientific one size fits all.

Didn’t mask up, didn’t take vaccines ( didnt need, not old, fat or sick) and went out all the time and I’m fit as a fiddle.

Gorsuch is 100% correct.

Since he failed to discuss the many benefits that make his opinion invalid that is not the case.

100% correct as the expert studies show.

Experts that you never mention with articles you can never bring? that would just be an empty appeal to authority that do not support your claim.

That is still a claim you keep making and can't ever support, even after repeatedly asked for a source, that means it is not only false, but proven so,

Didn’t mask up, didn’t take vaccines ( didnt need, not old, fat or sick) and went out all the time and I’m fit as a fiddle.

Pretending one personal case somehow disproves what has been found from millions of patients studied in detail makes absolutely no sense, is like saying that since someone survived a car crash without injuries then there is no danger in them.
