An Open Letter to HHS Secretary Becerra on Ending the Covid-19 Public Health “Emergency”

Human flourishing requires both public health and individual liberty and an appropriate balance between these goods when they conflict. We know that human beings flourish in community; we are social by nature. As such, we should not be surprised that government Covid-19 regulations mandating school closures, lockdowns, masking, and vaccination have isolated us from our fellow citizens and imposed significant attendant harms. It is time to declare this emergency over and once again let people take responsibility for themselves.
No American should be forced to violate his or her moral and religious beliefs, especially when it comes to morally fraught issues in health care.
