A. (30 points) The United States COVID policy has been extraordinarily controversial, and some of the authors we have read want philosophy to help guide policy. Explain whether this is a good idea and provide two reasons why a field with conflicting experts, relatively little progress, and a history of extended disagreements should play a greater role in public policy.

B. (30 points) Alternatively, science seems to promote convergence of opinion, progress on research questions, and maintain a history of limited extended disagreement. Is the role of science primarily to describe reality, prescribe policies, or both? In your answer to the previous question, give two reasons for your opinion.

C. (40 points) Building on your answers to A and B, present a rough picture of your ideal response to the COVID pandemic, as an improvement on what happened in the US during COVID. In your response, feel free to answer use the following issues to present your idea of what would have been a better response: the role of science, philosophy, and other fields; the importance of top-down versus bottom-up creation of policy; the significance of listening to non-experts,

especially citizens; the identity and training of policy makers; the significance of disagreement and divisive evidence and experts.

Note: For part C, feel free to cite and reference materials you find online. Answering this question does not require such research; only look for non-course sources if you need additional information or ideas.
