And for all the scientists asking “what can we do?”, here’s an interesting suggestion: call your local TV stations and newspapers and tell them you’d be happy to be interviewed. if you do that, please let us know and we’ll share so others can learn.
About local media: just "reach out to them," scientists, says @leahshaffer.bsky.social.
Other questions?

I mean, reach out to them. Even just to say the situation is chaotic and if their research is on pause. There's a legit fear of blowback, but just reach out and clarify you represent yourself, can't speak for your institution.

Pandemics do not begin with official announcements.
They start with quiet deletions, missing reports, and assurances that there is "no cause for concern."
