We cannot and will not do that. Add in the Greek Chorus of idiots around the globe and it’s not just an uphill fight, it’s nearly vertical. I’m pretty sure I sound like a broken record, but this will keep happening. We’re dealing with a threat the likes of which we haven’t seen before. It reminds me of criticisms I’ve heard and lodged against the military - too often they run into problems because they are refighting the last war.

Even the folks who have a clue are struggling and then we have a crowd of know-nothing, backbench warming, armchair flopping, barstool riding would-be epidemiologists spewing a reeking cloud of brain farts into the air. It will present interesting case studies for graduate students in 100 years IF we don’t REALLY FUCK THINGS UP BEFORE THEN. I’m not betting on us.

You have some good points, however,
