During a recent CNN interview with Chris Wallace, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer admitted that many of her COVID policies during the pandemic’s peak don’t make much sense in hindsight.
“I’m just curious if there is one thing in particular that you could do differently and again knowing then what you know now, what would it be?” Wallace asked.
“Michigan would’ve been manufacturing the world’s masks and swabs and would’ve helped keep people safe,” Whitmer said.
“I mean in terms of lockdown,” Wallace clarified.
“You know, there were moments where, you know, we had to make some decisions that in retrospect don’t make a lot of sense, right? If you went to the hardware store, you could go to the hardware store but we didn’t want people to be congregating around the garden supplies. People said ‘oh, she’s outlawed seeds.’ It was February in Michigan and nobody was planting anyway. But that being said, some of those policies I look back and think maybe that was a little more than what we needed to do.”
