I can't tell you if things are going better or worse than I'd expect because I don't know what the path out of lockdown is. The virus is roughly the same: calamitous if not controlled, but controllable.

What I CAN tell you is that the headline on this disease in big bold letters in late January was "SUBSTANTIAL SPREAD THROUGH ASYMPTOMATIC CARRIERS." That the CDC pretends to have recently noticed this is an insult to the intelligence of the American people, except journalists.

Journos have made few inquiries into why the CDC is making false statements to the public, and why they have done so to disastrous effect for all of 2020. That work has been left to a handful of MAGA republicans and silicon valley blowjob artists. Wouldn't have been my call.

My latest wtf is people who think lockdown ends when the infection trends down when they're looking at a log scale. I'm talking people who are used to looking at data....it's like they're hit on the head or hypnotized. I'm drowning here.

This pandemic has absolutely bodied log scale aficionados. "This would be the chart you want to use if you never learned to count." Gee, thanks.
