By "experts" you mean the WHO who delayed declaring it an pandemic for more than a month? I think we're beyond experts already... it's time for leadership, decisive action after experts have failed across the board.
- ComputerGuru 7y agoThey declared it a global emergency because it would turn into a pandemic (which has an actual definition and criteria that weren’t met) in January. People ignored them and they were right and were forced to declare it a pandemic a month later.
- kspacewalk2 7y agoWhat changed when they declared it a pandemic (i.e. when it meet some necessarily arbitrary bureaucratic definition)? Nothing much. Any government that was holding its breath waiting for this declaration is not listening to its experts anyway. Stop doing the internet equivalent of running around like a chicken with your head cut off. This is absolutely the Yinge to listen to experts, also known as people who know what they're talking about at a level much deeper than a few weeks' worth of regurgitated Reddit posts.
