Ý gì đây?

luôn "cảnh giác" với các con số được trình bày lẻ loi, không có bối cảnh...

trích dẫn hôm nay… is from page 142 of the late Hans Rosling’s insightful 2018 book, Factfulness:


When I see a lonely number in a news report, it always triggers an alarm: What should this lonely number be compared to? What was that number a year ago? Ten years ago? What is it in a comparable country or region? And what should it be divided by? What is the total of which this is a part? What would this be per person? I compare the rates, and only then do I decide whether it really is an important number.

DBx: The heightened relevance today of this bit of wisdom is obvious.
