Resist the temptation to conquer this chaos with slashing, drastic mental oversimplifications.A good way to make sense of the noise is to distinguish between three categories of information: A) what we know is true, B) what we think is true, inferences drawn from reasonably strong supporting evidence, and C) opinions and speculation.There’s a lot of C) with extremely limited evidence masquerading as B). Now that ~13,000 New Yorkers are already categorized as confirmed or probable COVID-19 deaths, in a city with a population of 8.5 million — a fatality rate of 0.15% for the entire city, not just those infected — it’s past time to recategorize that and similar speculation as category D), “proved completely wrong.”It’s important to be ready to move your own beliefs to category D as well.
