Don't come in here reading or thinking or "doing your own research." We're here to comply and Follow The Science.

You know, I said from the start: if the messaging around the pandemic actually matched reality, if cars were sliding off roads like a Hollywood movie (and this article tacitly suggests) you wouldn't have to work so hard to convince people to isolate, etc. Even then, as we knew and now know, masking and staying indoors would only do so much. But it wasn't that way, and we all know it. "Bad at underwater basket weaving" is how this article reads. It jumps the shark. It asks questions because it could hardly make an assertion like this.
