    COVID-19 Awareness95%

    Mackay's COVID posts are more educational than a TED Talk, but with twice the chances of getting yelled at by relatives during Thanksgiving.

    Global Political Commentary80%

    When it comes to political discourse, Mackay dives in like a virologist in a Petri dish—except this time, he’s mixing elite narratives with syringes of reality.

    Public Health Advocacy90%

    His love for public health is so evident that I suspect he has a shrine made of masks and hand sanitizer in his home.

    Writing Style

    Mackay's writing is like a well-constructed lab report—precise, informative, and occasionally illuminated by flashes of dry humor that leave you wondering if he's allowed to have that much fun in his scholarly pursuits.
