@JamesSurowiecki @TPCarney It's just hard to overstate how zealous some public health experts were at the time about pushing essentially a Zero COVID policy and how equally zealous some of the exact same experts were about defending the protests *from a public health standpoint*. It was a real step change. — PolitiTweet.org

@JamesSurowiecki @TPCarney I think you're considerably overestimating the degree to which "outdoor activity is basically safe" was the consensus by May 2020. There was certainly emerging evidence of it, but it was by no means the dominant message, and many outdoor activities were restricted or discouraged. — PolitiTweet.org

@JamesSurowiecki @TPCarney Even for me, it was a wake-up call that a lot of public health commentary had a highly partisan valence. It didn't personally change my individual risk calculations. But it did entrench I had to make those calls on my own and that certain external guidance wasn't so trustworthy. — PolitiTweet.org
