NYT isn't a Trump safe harbor.

Maybe, but he is a reporter.  Where are the epidemiologists and doctors saying that the models and the response is wrong?  Why should they all be "political"?  Surely if there are some out there saying something different, the media (on one side or the other) would find them?  Not just some reporter who has been "analyzing the data on a daily basis."  Heck, we've all been doing that, on here.

There is heavy partisanship in the middle of a pandemic.

There was partisanship during the Depression.  And during the Flu Pandemic in 1918.  And during every crisis.  It's only after the fact that a narrative gets written about what solved the problem.  That's called history.  Think about it, how long did the Depression last?  We've been in lockdown for what, 3 weeks?
