BERENSON CALLS THE MEDIA FOR ”FULL FAILURE” TO ASK EXPERTS ‘ABOUT CORONAVIRUS LOCKS
“Apart from a few weeks in a handful of cities around the world, including, sigh, the world media capital [New York City], the overall effects of this epidemic have been virtually unforgettable for the average user without a microscope. “he wrote.
“Hospitals don’t overflow. Bodies don’t pile up in the streets. Most of us will never know anyone under 55 (65? 70?) He died of COVID,” added Berenson, the one from Cierres.
Berenson went on to accuse the media of an “obsessive – almost sordid – fascination with counting the dead, updating in genuine time and presented context.”
“Why do we count the dead this way?” Asked. “We’ve never done this because of illness. I’ve never noticed anything like this before.”

Berenson in particular cited the Times for its “thermal maps” of COVID instances and what he called CNN’s “death counter,” as well as “everyone screaming on Twitter,” for instilling the feeling that the pandemic is worse than it is.
Indeed, Berenson said, “the other 700,000 people who [coronavirus] internationally killed account for less than part of the number of deaths or injury to road or diarrhoea or tuberculosis this year, less than 2% of all deaths.
“Never before has there been anything like this, even because of the virus.”
