  Political scientist Frances Lee examines the "noble lies" and truth-seeking failures of the pandemic.

The article from Yahoo News titled "Did Politics Fail Us During the Pandemic?" discusses the political handling of the COVID-19 crisis in the United States. It highlights the deep partisan divide that influenced public health measures, with Democrats generally supporting mask mandates and vaccinations, while many Republicans resisted these measures, often citing personal freedom. The piece points out the failure of political leadership to unite the country in the face of the crisis, leading to inconsistent policies and public confusion. It also mentions the impact of misinformation and the role of former President Donald Trump's mixed messages on the severity of the virus. The article concludes by questioning whether the political system's polarization exacerbated the crisis, suggesting that a more unified approach could have mitigated some of the devastating effects of the pandemic.
