In mid-January or so, the R0 and early CFR values for this thing were publicly available. Authorities such as the WHO and the CDC, and their lackey journalists in the media (both left and right, Vice and Fox) were beating the It's Just The Flu, Bro drum for a full month and a half since then.

Meanwhile, anonymous tweeps with anime avatars were digging into the numbers and disseminating the real news. It's one of those situations where you don't even need expert opinion, just a cursory understanding of what the numbers mean and the ability to write a 30 line monte carlo simulation in python.

So yes, being angry that the experts and journalists were actively trying to get people killed while an army of people with 73 followers and Yu-Gi-Oh avatars were the real heroes is fully justified.

It's so cartoonishly comical that Hanlon's Razor doesn't really apply. Malice is quite evident in this case, and it would be nice to see every JTFB type held to account when this is all over.
