No, the novel coronavirus is a virus, and a disease, and is not a statistic/agenda/debate. But, there can (and should, and is) be many statistics, agendas, debates, about a corona virus, hopefully.
- jimmaswell 6y agoThat's what the construct means, that there are those things around it. It's semantics but the point is the author is implying there should be no debate because their anecdote should mean it's obvious we have to react the way the author agrees with. It's a cheap tactic to shut down opposing arguments - "This isn't a debate, this is a real issue and you can't argue with statistics blah blah fall in line with my viewpoint or you're a wrongthinker with an agenda .."
