We are too anxious about radiation risk. We are too anxious about terrorism. We are too anxious about Covid. We are too anxious about the buzz of a mosquito fly

We are too anxious about radiation risk. We are too anxious about terrorism. We are too anxious about Covid. We are too anxious about the buzz of a mosquito flying in the room. We are too anxious about completely immaterial risks while ignoring way bigger risks (like damns failing, or common crime, or the health impact of the lockdown and medical treatments, vaccination campaigns being suspended, etc). Our collective reaction to these risks is completely irrational and disproportionate to the actual danger.
