L.A. is primed for disaster, but COVID-19 took it to another level (commentary by Emily Oster)
Emily Oster in the Los Angeles Times, "We are so focused on this one risk, and it’s not that I’m a COVID denier — I think COVID is really bad. But it’s not right to say it is the only risk people face. The mental health costs of isolation in your house for months and months and months are real."
