Please read this consensus statement in Nature from last month. Lately, these common-sense recommendations are being framed as "hardline," "zero-COVID," "fringe," in the popular media and even by some from our own communities, but there is remarkable consensus among scientists on what we need to do, even if we do not want to listen. As a benchmark for our aspirations, this is a fine document. #COVID #publichealth

@gregggonsalves I think the problem is that the harms of COVID have been successfully minimized by misinformation (often propagated by PH / govts) that *any* effort to prevent it is now regarded as excessive, unnecessary, and probably harmful in itself.
