Original Note:
One can not claim causality from observational studies. There are large differences in baseline health between states. Dr. Frieden may also be biased to make this claim as he is part of the Covid response which may not have helped at all, possibly producing harm. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8141434/ https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2022/jan/02/britain-got-it-wrong-on-covid-long-lockdown-did-more-harm-than-good-says-scientist
