Your article is very extensive and well organised. Thanks for collecting all of this information.

Sincerely, there are so many fake news these days that it becomes nearly impossible to tell the difference between truth and lies... as such, I don't really know what to think of all of it.

In my mind, there's a fear that all of it is just a big and elaborated plan to send humanity back into the times of dictatorship. 🤔

Thank you for the compliment. The difficulty lies in separating fact from fiction. Fortunately, there are ample reputable sources to pull data from.

There is truth to your words. The very acts governments take during this pandemic speak of dictatorships. There's a good reason to feel this way. The government tells you, in no uncertain terms, when you're allowed to leave your home and why. It...dictates which businesses may open and for how long all in the name of public safety.

The public, depending upon which public, might have a low tolerance for patience and it's also understandable. Poorly communicated information adds to the frustration of the populace. For instance, the CDC first doesn't recommend the use of face masks so no one wears them around where I live. Later, the CDC recommended face masks. These last two sentences are what people will generally hear in the media. Very little explanation is added.

Next, people report research results as fact. They don't include the understanding that research continues and their reports may change based upon them.
