    Okay, I’m looking - it clearly is going up and down in cycles but progressively the peaks are smoothing out. Can you explain the need for a stronger response now than we had in March? Are we just going to just go insane every 3 months and declare “omg, covid is back!” because a seasonal disease has peaks and troughs?

      Can you explain the need for hysteria?

      No, because if hysteria would be an appropriate response it wouldn’t be hysteria. The good news is: no one is calling for hysteria, there’s just a recommendation to wear masks.

        This is the article’s source for “recommendation to wear masks”

        A single tweet from a university researcher. And yet, we have a sensationalist headline about it.
