Pandemics aren’t anything new. Throughout the annals of history human beings have always wrestled with the challenges presented by incurable infectious diseases. whether it was Yellow fever, polio,Typhoid Mary, Scarlet fever or Smallpox human beings forestalled annulation and thrived.
We Cannot rely on incompetent politicians to keep us safe. neither can we rely on the the medical community. Both give twisted answers, to simple questions. And in most instances they appear just as frightened as members of the general public are. Government officials were fully aware of the threat the Corona Virus posed to the health and well being of people around the globe BEFORE IT Began to SPREAD. And yet rather than act, they did nothing. And to save face when the people demanded action they said “close your windows, lock your doors, then bury your head in the sand while we try figuring this thing out”.
The bottom line is, even if social distancing were done perfectly the Corona Virus will continue to spread. And although lives will continue to be lost. Many lives will be saved not by medicine, rather by the robust human immune system. Perhaps, if doctors were permitted to speak freely without threat of losing their medical license, they would say most illnesses resolve themselves requiring zero medical intervention.
Look, the challenges posed by the corona Virus are many but the resilience of the human spirit is immutable…… we will survive.
