Is it any wonder Covid is seen as a hidden agenda

The UK media has three types of report, one that the new variant is not that much of a threat, another is that it is serious threat, other reports say we don't actually know yet

Maybe the media need to hold off reporting, until they can get some consistent facts.

@zleap When the media or government DOES "hold off reporting, until they can get some consistent facts" they get accused of hiding the truth and indecisiveness.
Most of the problems seem to be the info equivalent of a "run on the banks", (or in the UK, government corruption.)
What I know for sure: My second covid infection, (this month) was hardly anything thanks to having 2x vaccine compared with how bad I felt for a month, during my 1st covid back in early 2020.

@zleap I understand why we have these problems - people feel that their tweets should matter, and realise that their facebook posts are hollow and meaningless, and that they have almost no power. (Which makes people want to "do something" to have a sense of control.) The problem is that [Wash hands, wear mask, get vaccinated] seems too easy in the face of a virus that has already killed so many. (And humans do very poorly in isolation, while also suffering the illusion of being independent.)
