So I have some perspective for you

THREAD👇🏻
I've heard more in the last few days than I have in the last 6 months about how people want to "hear from providers on the front lines" so they can "know what's really going on"

Well, my husband is one of those providers, so let's talk.

Random observation:

The narrative structure of news is beginning-middle-interruption. The great issues are only followed until something new comes to grab focus. And then we usually don’t go back.

And because we’re accustomed to that, we unconsciously expect it.
The Covid-19 pandemic was a huge news story, and it was interrupted by the murder of George Floyd by a representative of the state and the protests against police violence that followed.

And we have been conditioned to expect that. Covid-19 isn’t the story anymore.
This is how it always goes. Except the virus isn’t like that. It has gone on infecting and killing people just like before. Our cultural narrative is that it should be over, but the virus is unaware of how we tell stories. It doesn’t care.

“When you test, you find something is wrong with people. If we didn’t do any testing, we would have very few cases. They don’t want to write that. It’s just common sense.”
