The Babylon Bee Completely Misunderstands Boundaries. I Am Shocked. (note: not actually shocked)<\/a>, on Tell Me Why the World Is Weird\u2014\u201cThe Babylon Bee is trash. I\u2019m very happy to take every opportunity to remind people of this.\u201d<\/p>\n

Our Pandemic Summer<\/a>, on the Atlantic\u2014\u201c\u2018Everyone wants to know when this will end,\u2019 said Devi Sridhar, a public-health expert at the University of Edinburgh. \u2018That\u2019s not the right question. The right question is: How do we continue?'\u201d<\/p>\n

I\u2019m an E.R. Doctor in New York. None of Us Will Ever Be the Same<\/a>, on New York Times Magazine\u2014\u201cThough it has been only two weeks, I desperately ache for that time when a patient testing positive for Covid was a surprise.\u201d<\/p>\n

A New Statistic Reveals Why America\u2019s COVID-19 Numbers Are Flat<\/a>, on The Atlantic\u2014\u201cIf the U.S. were a jar of 330 million jelly beans, then over the course of the outbreak, the health-care system has reached in with a bigger and bigger scoop. But every day, 20 percent of the beans it pulls out are positive for COVID-19.\u201d<\/p>\n

Carnival Executives Knew They Had a Virus Problem, But Kept the Party Going<\/a>, on Bloomberg\u2014\u201cCarnival didn\u2019t tell passengers they might have been exposed to the virus until the evening of Feb. 3, about 43 hours after the initial alert from Wallem was sent.\u201d<\/p>\n

Is The Federalist Just Straight Up Trying To Kill People?<\/a> on Wonkette\u2014\u201cAre we living in Shirley Jackson\u2019s The Lottery<\/em>? Or The Wicker Man<\/em>? Because it\u2019s starting to feel that way. It\u2019s almost as if they think their \u201cfreedoms\u201d require<\/em> human sacrifice. That some people have to die so that they can be free \u2026 to hang out on their private beaches.\u201d<\/p>\n

Parents, don\u2019t diminish kids in #QuarantineLife<\/a>, on Religious News Service\u2014\u201cThey are not brittle, fragile beings we have to protect from the harsh realities of life. Nor are they blank slates we fill with our ideas absent thoughts of their own. They are dynamic human beings with a full range of emotions to receive and to contribute to family life.\u201d<\/p>\n
