    Document: Background: This article reverses the conventional logic of moral panics. COVID-19 precrisis risk communication is conceptualized as a form of implicatory denial that underreacted to COVID-19 in the three months leading up to the acute phase of the crisis.

Conclusions and implications: Linking the analysis to the broader literature on the social organization of denial highlights the dialectical relationship between the rhetoric of panic and conditions of implicatory denial.
