An article about covid that isn't filled with doom and gloom? What a nice break. While I think the author is right, what I fear is that the media will continue to freak out about every new variant and every new spike in cases leading to this weird state where it's not that bad, but everyone thinks it's getting worse.
- peakaboo 5y agoThe media freaking out is because they get payed to freak you out. Not only will you watch what they are saying - you will also be more open to getting the vaccine.
- ziziyO 5y agoThe reason it’s so upbeat, is it is written by a phd candidate (in philosophy, not epidemiology) for a “think tank” called The Center for the Study of Partisanship and Ideology. That think tank publishes gems like “colleges and universities are hostile to conservatives”, and has pushed back against COVID-19 mitigation efforts in the past. Not to be trusted.
