Twitter isn't anything special, it's just 2-3 weeks ahead of the conventional channels of information
With something that gets twice as bad every 3 days, 3 weeks earlier = 128x better. Over 100x better seems reasonable to call special.
My point was that Twitter didn't have a "special" insight, it was just earlier. I totally acknowledge that earlier knowledge is "special", especially in the context of a rapidly spreading disease. I've been making a "10 days inaction = 10x more deaths" argument for a long time
So what if Twitter had no special insight? In fact, it's more damning for the "experts" that all of these measures were publicly available information, it's an even stronger argument against blind obedience to authority.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
