We all suffer from the psychic numbing of COVID19.
We can learn something from this expert's analysis of
our current situation.
One can realize easily that the only way
for survival through the darkest period of suffering is to rely on
our coolest head, intelligence or the scientific mind, not emotion or
intuition, as Donald Trump and his supporters, have been doing.
The absence of this realization on the part of the political leadership
of so many countries has resulted in so many millions of deaths
around the world and here in America.
So far our contemporaries are no better than those of the 1918 Pandemic
whose science never identified the culprit virus.
The only difference is that we have vaccines waiting for us thanks to
the great scientists. The deplorable human behavior remains the same
as in 1918. How sad!
