The COVID-19 Pandemic: Perception, Confusion, Conspiracy Theories and Outlook
Journal Title: Journal of Regenerative Biology and Medicine - Year 2021, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
Mankind has obviously survived a large number of epidemics [1]. However, humans are extremely ill-prepared to deal with invisible dangers. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has four characteristics that arguably overwhelming human analytical capacity: Time lags, externalities, nonlinearities, and complexity. Given the complexity of the COVID-19 problem, rational, slow, and resource-intensive thinking capitulates early and people switch to intuitive and seemingly effortless thinking that works with the help of experience and analogies.
