I just don’t understand what it will take for SARS-Cov-2 to not be considered the equivalent of the plague. The list of stats indicating a microscopic to non-existent level of threat to the VAST majority would seem irrefutable at this point.

And yet.

I, too, appreciate your journalistic integrity, David, but at this point in the hysteria I’m physically and mentally incapable of giving anyone like Wachter any leeway in his profound, prolonged, perpetual mental illness surrounding what exactly is worth worrying about.

Wachter is the same man that refused to see his grandchildren for close to three years, if I’m not mistaken. To put off living one’s life due to any reason, is a life not worth living. That this cowardly man is so influential is the clearest example of how riddled with fear and anxiety our society has become and wishes to remain.

Thank you for your thoughtful and accurate reporting. This is why I paid for a subscription! I believe the covid alarmists are desperately trying to remain relevant and maintain their base of followers by telling them what they tune in to hear/read. I feel like most people have moved on, but there are still thousands who have fully embraced the forever-covid doctrine with religious zeal. I posted a comment on another Substack about an attempt, over a year ago, by the large state university our daughter attends to restart a mask mandate after a semester of in-person classes and no mask requirements. (There was a real or imagined uptick in "cases" in the county.) The mandate got a lot of push-back and was scrapped a few days later. I hope this is where we're at as a society, in spite of the Dr. Wachters and Eric Dings of the world.
