1. While I appreciate this

I have to wonder, when does coronavirus overload set in? Some 85-90% of news stories are about this one topic. When do people go so nuts over it that they just shut it all out?

Clearly, surviving during the Trump regime has conditioned a lot of people to react in just that way.

2. Agree that overload can set in and

even cause people to tune out to new developments.

But, considering the amount if disinformation and mistaken understanding of what we are dealing with, it's good that a reliable source is giving an update.
