What We Discuss with Nicholas Christakis:
🛑 What social science tells us about our best shot (pun moderately intended) at achieving herd immunity from COVID-19.
🛑 How social networks allowed the virus to spread and reinforced mistrust of well-known science among certain politically oriented segments of the populace.
🛑 What the lessons of past disasters can teach us about the road ahead.
🛑 Why the bad (and good) habits of our friends’ friends can have an impact on our own behavior from across vast social networks.
🛑 What we can do to best defend ourselves against the unwanted influence of these unseen members of our network.
🛑 And much more…
The COVID-19 pandemic has been an ordeal never before experienced by the generations alive today, but it’s important to remember it’s just one of many such disasters our species has endured over the course of human history. Warnings from the past have been plentiful, and society’s reactions have been predictable, but it still caught us largely off guard. Luckily, the map that guides us forward doesn’t have to be drawn from scratch if we heed the landmarks our ancestors left behind.
In this episode, we talk to Nicholas Christakis — author of Blueprint: The Evolutionary Origins of a Good Society, Connected: The Surprising Power of Our Social Networks and How They Shape Our Lives, and Apollo’s Arrow: The Profound and Enduring Impact of Coronavirus on the Way We Live — about the lessons we can learn from the pandemic, what past disasters tell us to expect on the road ahead, how social networks allowed the virus to spread and reinforced mistrust of well-known science, and how these same social networks amplify our very behavior to become as contagious as any pathogen. Listen, learn, and enjoy!
