Panic attack
playing politics with science in the fight against COVID-19
Book - 2021
Saphier characterizes the American pandemic response as hypocritical and hysterical. She criticizes the mass media messaging, state government policies, the rigidity of Dr. Fauci's guidelines, and the accuracy of coronavirus case records. Saphier claims that many others have made anti-science decisions regarding re-opening plans which fuel distrust and civil unrest. The book also discusses the politicization of science, from the origin of the virus to the concept of wearing facemasks.
