See below for less subtlety.

More folks will have to ask groups like @scholars.org that uncritically amplify the arguments of In Covid's Wake precisely what they are doing. Is it that they didn't read what the authors wrote, actually agree, or are just 'getting along'?

Fascinating given that "In Covid's Wake" is unable to grapple with (i) the extent of COVID mortality and morbidity; (ii) lives saved due to interventions; (iii) missed opportunities to align health + the economy.
