    Dichotomies are the enemy of good COVID-19 policy It's not an either/or lockdown or no control at all There is a whole spectrum of responses, many of which CAN PREVENT LOCKDOWNS

        Not in Politics! The point is: There is a group of people that knowing or not, have decided that it is more convenient not to listen to science. Do you honestly believe that they will start listening just 3 weeks from an election?

        The fact that this is so obvious yet the debate and logic society clowns treat this like an idea beamed from outer space is infuriating

        It is a mystery of our evolution that we adhere so steadfastly to black and white yet all around is shades of grey. And, yes, there is much we can do to prevent lockdowns. Unfortunately such as this is not it 😔 https://t.co/Xp5F4O5vUJ

        False dilemmas are always the enemy of good policy -- and the failing politicians' best friend!

        False dichotomies are the enemy of good critical thinking. Almost everything lays on some kind of spectrum and rarely hits the lower or upper bounds.

        That would be logical. Haven't seen much of that in the last four years. Knee jerk reactions and assumptions are the routine now. We need an Administration strong enough (and humble enough) to go back to rational thinking and problem solving.
