Fear. We were pounded with flashing scroller death counts and stories of overrun ER's from every corner of earth for what, two years? I made a comment in a running forum about the outdoors being the safest place to be and to please leave the mask at home because of the risk of low blood-oxygen levels and I was downvoted into oblivion.

Whenever I've shared this link ("U.S. Field Hospitals Stand Down, Most Without Treating Any COVID-19 Patients" https://www.npr.org/2020/05/07/851712311/u-s-field-hospitals...) with members of the hospitals-overrun-youll-die-from-an-infected-papercut crowd, they usually want to change the subject. Same when I remind them of the demands for hospital ships which then weren't used.
