[W]hen they’re just talking smack, maybe the best thing to do would be to ignore them – and instead rely on sources who actually know what they’re talking about and reporters who know enough about health and science and reality to discern between what’s true and what’s not.

There's much to applaud in Jason's write-up of a university student's efforts to show people in Japan where positive responses to the coronavirus are. And one thing to abhor, and that's the description of "a foreign virus running rampant".
