I have no opinion about what's on "the media" as I don't watch. I follow science links and those to responsible print outlets & read online.

If "the media" is scaring people out of their normal lethargy, that's a good thing. Fox News was telling people it was a hoax and political right up to the day it was declared a national emergency. People who consumed that cr@p are likely the ones threatening Dr. Fauci's life and calling him "deep state."

Now I see some of the most extreme conspiracy theorists promoting chloroquine, which the medical community is skeptical of...

This virus is real, and the good news is that yesterday's case count is off the curve.

The bad news is that testing is still behind - and unavailable to many - I'm also told the test used by the US has a 20% false negative.

So unfortunately, the full truth will not fully emerge for quite a while.
