Mark Changizi tried to warn us.\n\u201cThe moral of coronavirus19 will be that social contagion via social networks is more dangerous than biological contagion,\u201d the cognitive scientist wrote\u2026 on MARCH 17, 2020. Before the world was consumed by COVID-19 fears, lockdowns, mask mandates, or mRNA, how did Changizi know what was ahead \u2013 and can we reverse the damage?\n\u201cLockdowns were NOT common sense measures. They were hysterical reactions out of fear,\u201d wrote Changizi\xa0on April 27, 2020. In May 2020, he continued to sound the alarm about the increasing panic, writing that \u201cThe COVID19 hysteria will not go away easily. A mistaken narrative got created, and will be VERY difficult to correct.\u201d\nTo this day, he continues to warn against the madness of crowds, especially when driven by fear instead of science.\n\u201cHysteria kills,\u201d\xa0says Changizi. \u201cThe interventions didn\u2019t slow transmission. And only had harms. Including excess deaths.\u201d\nMark Changizi\xa0is a Theoretical Cognitive Scientist & Founder of FreeX.
