54. We are dangerously afraid of Covid-19

David Eberhard is joined by Katarina Gospic, doctor, neuroscientist and author. She has just released her book Digital Tsunami.

Gospic believes that it is the clique-maximizing media that has driven a disproportionate and ultimately dangerous fear of Covid-19.
