No. I put it that way many times as it distracts from the text of the article otherwise.
So explain how the lockdowns in the polio epidemic were different than the lock-downs today.
In both scenarios, there was no national lock-down. Towns, cities, counties, and states decided on their lockdown timelines and conditions. The policies varied all over the place. Not much different than it is today.
Just keeps pushing his narrative no matter how many times he's been shown. Next, the sky will be red.
In his defense, you can't just shout FALSE and expect that to be a good response to a valid debate.
I use FALSE only when responding to a posting that is totally wrong, disingenuous, and not worthy of debate. There are a lot of postings here at the ranch like that. You do understand that there is no valid debate coming from The Leftists correct?

Regardless of whether I believe there is or is not a valid debate used against me, I don't resort to just going FALSE. If I did, I couldn't criticize others for not using valid debate tactics without being hypocritical.
You can do whatever you wish, of course.
I obviously have provided significant historic evidence that the lockdowns for polio were not very different than lockdowns today. In fact many older people are stating that the situation is exactly similar. Here are some more articles...

"Look at polio. Movie theaters closed. Church services cancelled. Kids home from school. Swimming pools closed. It shut down American towns."
