So, COVID-19 cases in the US are rising. A second wave is possible. And with that potential second wave, comes a second wave of COVID-19’s partner in crime: panic porn. Breathless social media posts. People cancelling vacations. Politicians calling for additional lockdowns.

And while I understand that the memories of 2020 are still fresh. And that it is natural to feel fear as a result.

I think it’s important that we all understand what is really happening. It’s important to understand that what is happening isn’t surprising, and that it aligns with the trajectory of all pandemics. And I think it’s important that we zero in on what we should be doing to mitigate threat, rather than surrendering ourselves to fear.
