Director of @WHO: ` Stigma is more dangerous than the virus itself'

If you ignore all other threads and communiqués, then yes. It's not wokeness. In Uganda stigma contributed to the spread of HIV and it was necessary to combat it as the government did in the early 90s. Unhelpful to see everything through the prism of wokeness.

And then there's the Cyberdyne Systems Model 101, which basically looks just like a person... Woke virtue signaling is actually an insidious plot by Skynet to make us all easier targets

If our political "leaders" get more infected with ideas that put aside basic concepts of science in the face of a pandemic we are in big trouble.
