This is just wrong. Test-and-Trace + masks + distancing can suppress coronavirus and allow a partial return to normality until we get treatment/vaccine (which is likely, and not a "miracle"). Talk of "going for herd immunity" is just as bad now as it was in the UK 2 months ago. https://twitter.com/zeynep/status/1253677705205334017 …

There's no cost to just deleting a tweet, Zeynep! This isn't some kind of face-saving status-battle. Tweets don't have to be declarations written in stone. No one will fault you for deleting it.

It's not about face-saving! I delete tweets where I'm wrong, and I actually say I'm deleting them + why. You're conflating early UK-style "let's let this burn" with "if we don't control the relaxation in a particular way, we may get an uncontrolled, bigger fire a la 1918 Fall."
