MIT biologist says fear mongering on coronavirus will go down as biggest fraud to man

[nahtanoj]

I saw this news in this website:

https://techstartups.com/2020/03/16/mit-biologist-says-fear-mongering-coronavirus-will-go-biggest-fraud-manipulate-economies-update/

I'm not pro conspiracy theories but this guy is in the cutting edge of science and systems thinking. In this video: https://www.pscp.tv/w/1OwxWQMqYNDGQ he explain a lot of stuff that I think make sense.  He even talk about how scientists are making the wrong move of only doing reductionist science. I really don't know if he is anti vaccine or if he just don't recommend it in this case. But i really got impressed by him. He has a lot of videos and before you discredit him I would say you should see his last 3 videos on periscope. In the first one he prices Donald Trump, but in the last one he criticize him for pushing the hydroxychloroquine drug. He is also running for congress. If anyone knows more about him please share. I'm curious about him. 

Note: Don't argue against me. Or call me a conspiracy theorist, because I'm with you guys. I'm taking this very seriously. I even doing quarantine and improving my immune system. But his arguments and his knowledge of system thinking got my attention.

Not having enough fear of the coronavirus and frolicking on the beaches will go down in history as the most careless callous response to a pandemic.

Thanks for sharing this. I really like this guy. However, I am not a doctor and I don't know the science. 

interesting.

Fear is different from taking precautions. Berating people for lack of fear is the worst response to have.

@TrynaBeTurquoise  fear is an innate biological response to danger. A healthy dosage of fear kicks the fight flight response. 

Fear mongering is creating fear or panic for no good reason. 

In this case there's a pretty good reason to have fear. 

I'm not berating anyone. Just stating my opinion.

Fear is an innate biological response to real and immediate danger. Aka a bear chasing you. This is what the evolution of the fight or flight response was intended for. 

You don't have to be in fear about being chased by a bear when you take the precaution to avoid hiking out in bear country.

Likewise, you don't have to be in fear over something that is not an immediate threat to your life ie. coronavirus, rather take necessary precautions for your health and immunity. 

Liberate yourself from unnecessary fear.
