Introduction
- Dreher nad Kingsnorth very good essay on authoriatrianism and panic. (2021)
- The Zvi blog, which is very good on covid.
- John Tierney in City Journal, July 2021, on the suppression of covid science by the media and the panicky resort to lockdowns and masks. See also Peter Hitchens (2021) on how the Danish mask study that got the "wrong" answer was suppressed.
- The missing flu riddle: 'Influenza has been renamed COVID,' maverick epidemiologist says. Why would masks stop colds and flu but not covid? It must be something else, such as reclassifying flu's and colds as covid. But I guess it could just be that covid was aggressively increasing, and so even if cut in half by the precautions, it would increase a lot. It has to be that covid spreads a lot more easily than the flu or colds, tho, rather than just being more dangerous, which seems odd. For the standard view, see a good Nature article here.
