Just a few quotes to add some context to the clickbait:

> The study says closing nonessential businesses appears to have had some positive effect and cut mortality rates 10.6%, probably because bars were closed

> They looked at mortality rates but didn’t consider how lockdowns might have affected the number of infections or virus-related hospitalizations. They also didn’t use studies that forecast deaths.

> The findings conflict with previous studies that found lockdowns worked.
