So, in the last 48 hours, we have gotten the following covid news:
1. We've reached the other side of the curve in FL, TX, AZ, and probably CA;
2. T-cell memory is real and means a significant portion of the population can fight off the most severe covid;
3. Hospitalized covid patients treated with convalescent plasma may have their death rates reduced up to 50%;
4. NYC is experiencing nearly zero new cases or deaths.
These pieces of news will not be widely reported. Instead, you will hear that vast death is right around the corner, as per the usual. You will hear schools must remain closed. You will hear that the Sun Belt blew it. You will hear lockdowns must be reimposed.
This is bulls***, pure and simple. It is not data-driven. It is narrative driven, it is bad policy, and it is absolutely political.
