I don’t see why media outlets don’t hire or at least have science consultants so they can write more accurately.
I have fallen back on just looking at case counts, hospitalizations, and reported deaths (with some deeper digging into the deaths to see, at a glance, how many are the dubious "92 year old falls and fractures skull while having COVID") Reporting has been, in aggregate, abysmal
But twitter.
It’s not just the pandemic. Too many are pushing an agenda, right and left. We are getting different facts depending on whom we are reading or watching. Often times it’s not untrue, just not the whole picture. This is *really* dangerous.
This is why I follow you. :)
Seriously. I have no idea what is going on? A month ago, I heard that cloth masks/bandanas might be WORSE than no masks because "it's possible the fabric breaks up bigger particles into smaller particles that can remain airborne longer" and yet ... who knows anything?!
Yes, it needs both. Frankly, I think in general people need more both, but that’s another story.
I know where you are coming from but the fact that we have so much community transmission of an RNA virus that shows evidence of mutating/evolving IS bad. One of the main reasons to minimize widespread transmission/independent outbreaks is because they evolve.
The same way we don't understand how this thing jumped to humans, we can end up with a deadlier version or a version that can bypass the currently developing vaccines.
Is it really just “traditional media outlets”? Weren’t you and others kneecapped by the CDC withdrawal of their new guidance this week? Seems like that’s a big deal when it comes to public understanding of the virus and trust in information.
