Maybe those headlines will turn out to be true. There are lags, so let's definitely give it another week or two. But *so far* the evidence is mixed. And it's easy enough to see a path where those dramatic predictions/headlines backfire and wind up reducing support for distancing. — PolitiTweet.org

One salient example is dramatic headlines and predictions put out around re-opening plans in states such as GA and TX a few weeks ago, which sometimes seemed written to bolster support for maintaining distancing or to scare these states into shape. https://t.co/gYHOWqOc1V — PolitiTweet.org

The point is: this is a long game. COVID-19 will be with us for a while. Maybe if we're very smart/lucky, it will have become less of a problem by the fall or by next spring. But those are optimistic scenarios. It could take years. So maintaining reader trust will be essential. — PolitiTweet.org
