Pretty much a few months in the pandemic, I realized I would be 100% well informed if I generally just read 3 sources: Ed Yong, Zeynep Tufekci, and Katelyn Jetelina (Your Local Epidemiologist). Pretty much everything else (not counting public health websites) felt like sensationalist garbage that wasn’t aiming to inform us but rather just get clicks. I know if these folks write something, it will be well researched, well thought about, and when they make mistakes (like getting caught up in any political debates), they genuinely care about fixing them in search of knowledge, truth, and better understanding an issue. I’m a huge fan of Ed Yong’s work and I know just about any issue he writes about, I will come away truly learning something new and useful.
