Arguing About “COVID”: Metalinguistic Arguments on What Counts as a “COVID-19 Death”

Lewiński, Marcin; Abreu, Pedro

Pages: 17 –41

On Arguments from Ignorance in Policy-Making

Andone, Corina; Lomelí Hernández, José Alfonso

The Argumentative Potential of Doubt: From Legitimate Concerns to Conspiracy Theories About COVID-19 Vaccines
