The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

pandemic taught people how viruses spread

Didn't every adult in the developed world not learn this as a child from their parents? Or failing that, at school? Are most people genuinely that stupid?
