Local reporters in Covid hot spots push to break through to the unvaccinated
CNN
As the Delta variant continues to spread, particularly among the unvaccinated, local reporters in Covid-19 hot spots are aiming to get through to the non-believers.
There's been a lot of discussion on how media outlets should cover the rise in Covid-19 infections spurred by the highly contagious Delta variant. And some are concerned that the attention being given to so-called "breakthrough" infections may be helping fuel vaccine resistance — even though people who are vaccinated are far less likely to suffer serious illness. Perhaps cases "are not the best barometer for how we measure the pandemic anymore," Robby Soave, author and senior editor at Reason, said on "Reliable Sources" Sunday. CNN's Chief Media Correspondent Brian Stelter echoed that sentiment. "Maybe hospitalizations is the better metric for the media to highlight," Stelter said, "not cases but hospitalizations."More Related News
