Saw this and had to comment. First what I read followed by my response.
Lets just suppose that at some time in the future a novel viral pandemic will develop.
what can be done now to be ready for that day?
what technical inventions are needed, what action plans should be in place, and most importantly, what would help you have trust in the policy / science / medical experts?
we need better widgets, but we also need to earn better trust.
pandemics stress test the trust on which society is built.
what would it take to be more ready next time?
My response:
How bout instead of worrying about the next pandemic and discussing how our “leaders” continually make bad decisions on how to handle these things, we instead work on getting our body and immune system as healthy as possible so it can kick the pandemics butt? Such a crazy concept ???
What do you think?
When I read this your answer was what I would say. And I comment every time Adam Cifu or Mandrola and the like talk about this stuff.
@Unbekoming and @Midwestern Doc do great Substacks.
The real pandemic, is one of metabolic dysfunction and toxic overload. Unfortunately, there is profit to be made by illness, so a strong and resilient population is not beneficial to the current system.
The other on going “pandemic”(2020-?) was and is many things, but none of them an actual pandemic.
