Jess Rants: I Hate Platitudes (Pandemic Version)

The pandemic has been filled with platitudes and sayings. Unfortunately, platitudes don’t do anything. It became a way to feign concern without actually changing anything. Over the past two years we heard a string of platitudes, starting with “We’re all in this together.” 

In this rant, Dr. Hasson talks about 9 pandemic platitudes including:
2:01 We are all in this together 
3:12 Follow the Science 
5:56 My Mask Protects You, Your Mask Protects Me 
8:22 The New Normal. 
10:45 Only When It’s Safe 
17:13 I did everything right. 
20:37 Remain Vigilant 
21:37 Show Grace/Give Grace 
24:00 The Children are Resilient

Remember, #ActionsNotPlatitudes & #Policy&Change not #Thoughts&Prayers
