So you deliberately ignore research, you're not concerned by the hundreds of thousands of cases per day, you're not concerned by the fact that hospitals are nearing capacity, or that ambulances are having to deny patients?

Just out of curiosity, what will it take for you to start paying attention? At which point will you think "hang on, something doesn't feel quite right. Maybe everything's not all hunky dory"?
I feel like some people just won't take notice until they have to kick aside body bags to get into Starbucks for their morning coffee. (obviously hyperbole, don't get too caught up on this 'prediction')

And I realise it's fun to blame the media for everything bad in the world, but remember that this all began as a result of a nation trying to suppress the media coverage of the outbreak. If the media did nothing while hospitals were closing their doors, or as people were being quarantined at the border, the conspiracy theorists would have their work cut out for them.
Seems the media are damned if they do, damned if they don't with coronavirus coverage...
