How The Media's Response To H1N1 Compares To COVID-19

There are several differences in the media's response to H1N1 and COVID-19, Nowak explained.

For one, media coverage is more frequent when actions by the government or other oversight agencies are new and sweeping, as has been the case with evolving stay-at-home orders in the COVID-19 era. Disconnects between health measures, the economy, political parties, state and federal orders, demands for more testing amid a limited supply, all result in more stories.

"This is a completely new experience, having to deal with a pandemic caused by a coronavirus," Nowak said. "(The CDC) always planned for pandemics that would be caused by flu viruses."

What's compounding coverage now is the reality that there are many more news outlets than there were in 2009, and more platforms such as Twitter and Instagram on which to spread that information. In 2009, Fox News wasn't as large, and outlets such as Stat and Vox didn't exist yet, Nowak said.

And as for social media, the CDC didn't even have a Twitter account in 2009. That didn't happen until May 2010.

But in 2009, there also was a sense of certainty about the future. H1N1 hit the scene as flu season was coming to a close and a vaccine was developed in enough time to get it into the next flu season's immunization shots.

There's less certainty with COVID-19, which spreads much easier and can be transmitted by people who are asymptomatic or pre-symptomatic, Nowak said.

Does this count as the media reporting on H1N1 before 12,000 deaths?

Comparatively speaking versus the coverage Covid19 is getting.....no , not even in the same Galaxy.

But you already know that

You're seeing the news outlets that have been butthurt by trumps own use of social media against them act exactly like the folks that can't get over Hillary losing.

Nothing more.

I know that you're never going to admit you're wrong. It's fun finding counter-examples to your nonsense, though.

You're not even real sure who the trump folks are....just that you aren't supposed to like them....as you're told.

I live around them. I work with them. They are everywhere in my region. Great folks, I just think their political views usually stink

[jr29]

It's never all or nothing with me....I'm a little more reasonable than that.....you should try it.

Somewhere in the middle on both responses would have been more appropriate.

Don't you think?

I just gave Tom Cotton a pat on the back.
Trump has done some good thing in this response. Mostly he's stunk though.
I have no problem giving credit when it is due or vice versa.

[Barbecueboy]

Because I'm not wrong here......look at the amount of coverage prior to the first 12k swine deaths when Obama was fleecing the country and then look at the coverage prior to the first 12k covid deaths.

Tell me or anyone they are comparatively the same coverage.

Do you think I'm a " trump folk"?

[jr29]

Do you think I'm a " trump folk"?

I can tell we don't agree on a lot of this stuff. I've been surprised before though.

[Barbecueboy]

Is it as much fun as stockpiling toilet paper and sanitizer so that you have plenty but your community can't find any?

Counter examples, lol........you just like to argue.

My example, the sky is blue......your counter example , it's really off blue with a touch of grey.

[Barbecueboy]

I can tell we don't agree on a lot of this stuff. I've been surprised before though.

So does that mean you think I'm a "trump folk" or not? A straight answer would be cool.

Cable news covered H1N1 around the clock when we started seeing cases here in the United States. There are some big differences between that pandemics and this one. One of the big ones is the difference in geography and time. H1N1 started in Mexico and it was already in the United States before things got serious and they had to lock down parts of Mexico. Whereas Covid-19 started in China and we had seen lock downs in China and Italy before it took off in the United States.

The internet was a lot different in 2009 than in 2020. Social media wasn't as big then as it is today and news organizations relied more on TV and print than they do today.

Finally, Covid-19 behaves a lot differently than H1N1 does.

You might not be "trump folk" but you consume a lot of the propaganda.

Is this a game show? If you want to say something just say it.
I play guessing games with my kids.

They covered it round the clock???? For how long?

Is it really that hard for you to admit that the media hates trump and for the most part he hates them......the left media( which covers about 85% of them) is so hell bent on retribution for the embarrassing Hillary debacle they haven't given trump any chance ....almost to the point of treason.

True the social media and Internet is much different today than it was then.....you know what else was much different then too.....the president and his policies.

It's not really that hard to see when you take the blinders off.
