Public health "experts" suddenly condoning large, in person protests because not protesting would be a "bigger risk" to public heath prove once again that they don't understand multiplicative risk @nntaleb @normonics

Survivorship bias is rampant when looking at successful individuals for advice. Take all the "tips and tricks" with a grain of salt
