One of the authors tweeted this:

"The rest of the world has accepted the endemic nature of Covid and moved on, but the U.S. is an int'l outlier, still pushing mass testing & chasing down every case." [0]

I'm not sure what inverse universe he lives in given that we barely do any official testing, and contact tracing never even got off the ground.

His retweets are also all the other well known covid-minimizers - including the infamous Jay Bhattacharya.

A kid in my 3yo son's preschool class tested positive today, and they are asking that all kids test twice (with a few days in between) and wear masks at all times while at school for the next 6 days. I'm in SF

My intuition is that people underestimate the impact of forcing kids and toddlers to wear masks.

What I observe is that for folks without kids, life has gotten back to normal, but somehow everything related to kids is still over cautious.
