Willfully blind. Because to look closely might shatter the rosy myth of safety and of any social and technological progress.

I say myth because we are regressing and rapidly into a new dark age.

Reasonable doubt confuses everything, was that sudden flare up of cancer caused by x, or was it from a,b or c? This toxic world where toilet sprays, construction waste, chemical cleaners or micro-plastics confound the carcinogenic process and muddy the waters.

Look for signs of mitochondrial damage and dysfunction above and beyond regular levels expected for their age. Look for the absence of nucleocapsid proteins. But burying your head in the sand is not a great survival strategy. Just like closing your eyes in a boxing match isn't going to make the opponents haymaker hurt any less.
