One of the problems is that we’ve had virus scares every couple of years. People have had a hard time accepting this one, because the others got managed.
But yeah, I think we will continue to have scares every couple of years. And maybe it’s another 100 years before a spanish flu or coronavirus. Or maybe it’s next year.
The plus side, is our medicine and science is a lot more advanced than it was when the Spanish flu hit. The downside is it still takes time to develop something and prove it’s effective and safe.
The thing is, even 2009 had become a distant memory to me. I vaguely remember my office giving out hand sanitizer to everyone (good luck with that this time).
But going back and reading the thread back then it looked pretty ominous, with dire predictions, all like what we’re seeing here. Yes, we’ve got a rocky road ahead.
But I think, as with 2009, most of us will have forgotten about this all in due time. But until then, buckle up.
