[QUOTE="MovingForward2050, post: 1373279, member: 18126"] When it comes to the Huffington Post, I do think twice about them, because they tend to be painfully liberal, though not in my view to the super sjw level of the BBC, which I used to love. I am fond of the NPR I suppose because of listening to podcasts about the expat experience and also world literature. I thought both articles did a solid job of quoting/crediting medical professionals about the sneaky and potentially deadly contagious nature of Coronavirus. They gave sources, which is a practice I don't always see in news reporting nowadays. Right now, my bestfriend back in America, has two teenage nephews who are both sick with Coronavirus, despite being fit athletic kids. I belong to an email list with the members being mainly engineers, scientists and academics. And to my surprise, several members have decided wearing masks outside, as long as you maintain social distancing, is ridiculous and they refuse to do it. They found the opening up of Florida to be a crucial experiment for seeing how the virus will do there now, compared to the rest of the nation. But then considering the clumsy huge closings that have ravaged the American economy and hurt so many people financially, the future of pandemic control is using "surgical strikes" to contain it just in the areas where it is really needed.
