It’s so infuriating to try to read that great info in a million disjointed tweets. I don’t get Twitter character limits at all in the year 2020.
Probably it's just the wrong tool for this job.
It's so infuriating to see people using Twitter for what it's not, and also in this case for causing undue worry.
I hate people using it as a freaking Powerpoint replacement... Bullet point after tedious bullet point, great job presenting your knowledge, Mr. Expert! /s
It's indeed sad, but apparently many people think "if it's good enough for the POTUS, it's good enough for me!"
It's heartening to see the way that we're reacting to this threat.

We need to be doing exactly the same thing in the fight against climate change.
