Covid-19 Update -- September 8, 2023

Locator: 45572COVID. 

Several items:

  • non-credible source; like reading something from Vogue; The WSJ Covid-19 expert was a former restaurant critic. She may be proved right, but if so, more luck, than science:

Buzz:
  • new vaccines / prior infection: will likely prevent/mitigate serious disease;
  • new outbreaks: will be made worse due to governmental complacency and lack of individual responsibility;
  • it appears "herd immunity" was a meme; didn't play a role in management of Covid-19, in 2020; 
  • "masking," per se, makes no sense; "masking" in toto, makes all kinds of sense.
  • role of Covid-19 and "disappearance of "seasonal flu" will become clearer this season (2023 - 2024)

Current and old links:

Politics:

  • the fact that it was the lead story -- why President Trump did not fire Dr Fauci -- speaks volumes about journalists covering this story.
  • mainstream media has never -- to the best of my knowledge -- explained this in language that eighth graders -- their audience -- could understand
