It's called the prevention paradox: if there was a lot of media reporting about the risk, if professionals went about their job and prevented the worst from happening then the public will wonder why there was so much fuss but they could not see any of it having any impact at all.

(I suppose you knew, in that case, this is for those who don't. I found this a useful explanation for many similar situations including how we deal with covid in retrospect)
