Dr. Phil McGraw is warning Americans to start thinking about the “next pandemic.”
On this week’s show, Dr. Phil welcomed guests to discuss the challenges associated with the pandemic lockdown. One of our guests, a teacher, detailed the widespread learning loss and behavioral challenges in today’s schools. Another guest told a story of how his business was classified as “non-essential” during the pandemic and he defied authorities, which led to his arrest.
Dr. Phil says the lessons Americans should learn from the coronavirus pandemic are clear: We need to plan better for next time.
“What I worry about is when the next pandemic will turn the corner, and when it does, who made the plan? What have we learned from this? Because about it Because you don’t hear anyone talking, right?” Dr. Phil said. “I want people to say, ‘We need to be prepared for when this happens again.’ And I want people to say, ‘We need to be prepared for when this happens again.’ I’m not a conspiracy theorist who claims that.
“But I’m saying we need to think about whether we rely on the science and how we react when the government comes in and starts telling us what we can and can’t do. ” he continued. .
“I think we need less government,” Dr. Phil declared. “I think we have a way to solve these problems if they just back off.”
A common argument advanced by lockdown apologists today is that so-called experts made the best decisions possible at the time, given the information they had in the midst of the pandemic.
But Dr. Phil thinks that’s an exaggeration.
“No, they didn’t. They knew better, and if they didn’t know better, they should have known better. That’s what’s rewarding them. ” he cried.
Dr. Phil has been speaking for months about the collateral damage of pandemic lockdowns. In February, he made headlines when he debated with liberal hosts on The View about the irreparable damage that lockdowns have caused to children.
”[Schoolchildren] People have suffered, and will continue to suffer, more from the poor response to the coronavirus than from contracting the virus. And that’s not an opinion, that’s a fact,” Dr. Phil said, to loud applause from the crowd.
