Our favorite doctor makes his return to the City Journal with an article on the discreditable politics of Covid-19 vaccinations in the European Union.

The whole unedifying story demonstrates the lengths of dishonesty to which a political class is willing to go to save face (and possibly its own jobs)—but more interestingly, perhaps, the extent to which populations remain willing to look to that political class for guidance in making decisions. I confess to being surprised.
