    This basically happens all the time.

    There a problem (lots of dead children). A massive amount of effort and money is spent on doing something about it (measles vaccine). The problem is basically solved (2015). People without any sense or knowledge say it wasn’t really that bad (antivaxxers).

    With Y2K, at least it wasn’t going to happen again, with measles were less lucky.
