Of course, the correspondent is naturally posing in front of a beach! Never mind that the most risk is to low-wage workers, nursing home residents, food plant employees, prisoners and *indoor* bar and restaurant goers! A vast random beach!pic.twitter.com/3zj40x6c84

Yes Princeton, NJ known for *checks notes* its lack of beaches. Either that, or everybody kept a really solid secret from me the year I spent at Princeton University. But whatever, bring on the beach scolding.pic.twitter.com/qPImdhhmXG

95% of COVID deaths in Sweden are from people over 60, and almost 70% are from people over 80 mostly because Sweden did a terrible job protecting nursing homes and the elderly. What's the picture in the NYT Sweden article? Young people outdoors—among the least risky activities.pic.twitter.com/DLKSkTwq7s

Young people getting infected in CA are often low-wage essential workers or people who go to indoor bars/parties. Naturally, LATimes picks one of the least risky activities locals can do to illustrate “risk.” Gee, I wonder why public health messaging isn’t getting through.

Text: The common denominator of the cases were that transmission happened indoors in restaurants and bars! Photo editor: "how about some people in bathing suits?" Someone? "Yes, sure go for it, we are here to misinform."https://twitter.com/hichaelmart/status/1282388807573295104 …

California is closing indoor restaurants and bars because the data show that’s where transmission occurs, along with workplaces. Of course, bring on the beach photos—there is not a single confirmed significant outbreak at a beach, but why let that stop us? https://twitter.com/xxiborza/status/1282814799152218112 …

Narrator: It's been months and there is NOT ONE KNOWN SUPERSPREADER EVENT IN A BEACH which makes sense because of sun & wind. Way to misinform, Washington Post photo editor. At this rate, we can't organize our way out of a paper bag, let alone a pandemic.https://twitter.com/suzyji/status/1284604361453297671 …
