From Julia Doubleday, The Gauntlet:

"Each time a new wave crops up, the media scrambles to let the public know that COVID is spreading “again” (although of course, a new wave has arrived because the virus has been spreading continuously since 2019). But each time, it fails to inform the public that nearly half of COVID cases are asymptomatic, that COVID looks different in different patients, that vaccines do not prevent infections, that rapid tests have high false negative rates, and that COVID is fully airborne."
