Only issue is the verification is biased by the beliefs of those seeking to verify. You can find sites that will justify whatever you want to hear. More people are getting sick, being hospitalized and dying but if you believe it's a hoax or just the flu then nothing will change your mind and you will search out those that agree with you. We must all do what we believe is right for us and in my case that includes social distancing, wearing a mask, avoiding large groups, you know, the stuff that we did in the beginning that worked. The downside of not doing that is that the stuff we want to do will close down or not reopen at all. All because there are those that think it's all a hoax and won't play nice.
