Rethinking COVID-19 Models: Mathematicians Ana Cascon and William Shadwick Speak Out

The sensible question is: can we do it right? These mistakes have consequences in the real world and we cannot abdicate, nor can our leaders abdicate, responsibility ever again to a select group who kept getting it wrong and it was clear that they were wrong.
Imagine discovering that the very models used to shape global responses to COVID-19 were riddled with errors. In this eye-opening episode of 'Trish Wood is Critical', award-winning journalist Trish Wood sits down with mathematicians Ana Cascon and William Shadwick. These experts argue that many of the pandemic projections, which fueled widespread fear and stringent public health measures, were fundamentally flawed.
Cascon and Shadwick make a compelling case that these miscalculations didn't just fail to curb the virus—they may have caused more harm than good. Through Wood's empathetic yet probing interview style, the episode sheds light on the importance of questioning so-called expert opinions and underscores the need for accountability in public health decisions.
Whether you're skeptical of the official pandemic narrative or simply curious about the numbers behind the headlines, this episode offers a fresh perspective that will leave you thinking long after it's over.
