The current evidence shows that only mass vaccination defeats COVID in the face of those unwilling to follow public health measures. At this point the pleading by elected officials and medical officers of health to go harder on restrictions is just shrill hectoring to my ear. Any efforts by government and its mandarins that is not directed to an acceleration of vaccine programs is a dereliction of public duty now.
Can I disengage from this toxic covid fearing drivel? I paid upfront to support free thought but your fear mongering is getting so boring. Let me out!!!
We will further point out our last two pieces on COVID: A piece from Matt Strauss about why we ought to be optimistic about COVID's declining mortality rate (and, hence, why lockdowns are no longer justified.)
I got just the opposite - I read the line because the legacy media is more interested in disaster porn than reporting fact. The Line is a refreshing change
That was what I thought originally. But they seem to forget their mission when it comes to covid and behave exactly like the legacy media. Possibly even worse?

Love this week’s dispatch. Maybe “lightening-strike“ could be changed, though?
Yes, we are terrible self copy editors. With apologies.
No apologies needed. You’re the best commentary out there!

Most of this dispatch is devoted pointing out that media is engaging in fear-mongering that is not borne out by facts. With examples!
But you are free to unsubscribe at any time, and we thank you for your support.

And this piece from Kareem Shaheen complaining about MSM's reliance on disaster porn.

Jane, did you actually read the article?
I must have read a different dispatch from you Jane. How is it worse than the disaster porn of the legacy media?
