The health authorities and the politicians are breathlessly chasing corona virus infections, posting large numbers in the media on a daily basis.
The few deaths due to Covid 19 are mentioned almost as an aside.
Shouldn't it be the other way around? The actual casualties weigh in as a very low percentage of the infections, hovering in the single digits. So why is the number of infections given such prominence?
Many of us are aware that there is no such thing as a politician who will refuse free media exposure. It is also obvious that the media is flogging face masks, disinfectants, sanitary wipes and toilet paper.
Why is the human herd so willing to co-operate with such manipulative behavior by mayors and councilors who inconvenience their electorates with face masks, fines and endless regulations? Do we like being manipulated?
