One great comment I saw on another site (reworded):
We have two crises in play:
—The Virus
—Epistemology (nobody can agree on any sets of “facts”)
and another variation—two kinds of people:
Flexible—Their views can change based on new data
Dogmatic—Their views will remain the same regardless of new data. When faced with data that opposes their views they will claim a conspiracy to lie to them or the data has been cooked.
