@erictopol @alaric the only issue I have is “let our guard down” framing

Scientists didnt, doctors didnt, nurses didnt.

Right wing agitprop astroturfed “peoples movements” funded by corporations and oligarchs deliberately spent millions on stochastic terroristic social media campaigns to gain power and preserve profits on the bodies of millions

To the point babies are showing up in ICU with fucking MEASLES.

Our guard wasn’t let down, it was shot in the back.
