I'm struggling with the criticism I'm getting for sharing upbeat #COVID19 news.

For years, I probed data and shared accurate analysis showing COVID risks were higher than most thought. Many people liked and reposted me.

Today, I share that COVID is far lower than it's been in six years after two years of consecutively declining surges, and people act like I'm a COVID minimizer.

Same guy, same data, same analysis. If you welcomed my concern, I hope you'd equally embrace my optimism. 1/2

I depend on your COVID reporting as a trusted source.

I haven't abandoned my COVID cautions due to your good news.

I do use your new, more positive data to alleviate some of my anxieties about being in public spaces.

Don't let the haters affect your analysis.
