Two realities - Wuhan Flu

Reminds me of that saying (two more at the site):

In academia there is no difference between academia and the real world; in the real world there is.

Same thing in politics - two headlines:

• • Joe Biden: States Should Pause Reopening, Reinstate Mask Mandates
  • Coronavirus Cases Fall in Texas over Two Weeks After Restrictions, Mask Mandate Lifted

One of these is based in reality.  Guess which one.
