The alternative is they don't report on it, and then everyone says "Why weren't we told?"


That may stem from what you are seeing in the US vs the blanket coverage in the UK. You can watch BBC or Sky (other channels incessantly covering CV19 are available) for 3 hours and find less than 20 minutes of coverage of any other subject.
