Good coverage of the latest messaging disaster, in a year with many. We are dramatically underselling the amazing vaccines, exaggrating the uncertainties and people trying to emphasize the good news are being drowned out, or worse.https://www.nytimes.com/2021/01/18/briefing/donald-trump-pardon-phil-spector-coronavirus-deaths.html …

I’m not sure how this isn’t more obvious, but wagon-circling leads to groupthink (as we saw with many public health/expert folks and masks early on) and pointing out failings is NOT what leads to loss of confidence in experts, it’s the opposite. It’s the wagon circling.

Being wrong is okay, even if it is due to groupthink. Groupthink is common among expert communities, to be honest. Constant danger to all. Being tired is human and understandable. (We all are). Adjusting messaging is excellent. Wagon-circling? No, no, no. That’s how things fail.

On the other hand, there are a lot of us with health issues begging for the vaccine but can’t get it because we are under 65.

You should be 1b, depending on the condition.
