I've seen many say "so what if people reject vaccines, refuse to wear a mask, or drink raw milk, it's Darwinism."
Well, the risk of viruses mutating into more deadly forms increases when they are allowed to spread. Individuals ignoring public health practices harms everyone.

We wanted to better understand how to improve public health messaging against disinformation. So we asked Emily Oster how to coddle upper class Trump supporters about being wrong & selfish & ignorant so they can avoid being minorly inconvenienced by things like facts or the existence of other people
