Ordinary people are confused … and docs say that they are flying blind.
==============
It’s hard to follow the data when there’s no data presented … just assertions from oft-wrong political-scientists who command “just trust me”.
Case in point, as reported by USA Today…
Last Friday, Jen Psaki — Biden’s press secretary — was asked for data about Covid “break-through infections” — cases of people getting re-infected with Covid even though they have been fully vaccinated.
When Psaki tried to duck the question, the reporter pressed her for a specific answer.
“Why not just provide the number? Are you trying to hide something?”
Psaki shot back, “Why do you need to have that information?”
Say, what?
The reported countered: “For transparency, in the interest of the public, and for a better understanding of how breakthrough cases work”.
Frustrated, Psaki simply moved on to another topic.
===============
This was a stark example of what Biden-Harris might call a ”root cause” … a root cause of public distrust and, maybe even, of vaccine hesitancy.
Loosely quoting Jerry Maguire “Show me the data!”
