PPE and other temporary solutions make a lot more sense than major construction projects. This pandemic will end and we will need to go back to being a society that regularly gets sick and has correspondingly effective immune systems.
Otherwise, we will be vastly worse off the next time we face a novel disease.
- DoreenMichele 7y agoEvery old culture with a history of dense populations in relatively large cities has certain cultural things in common, such as bowing instead of shaking hands and consuming very spicy foods (which help kill microbes). I think you are flat out wrong. With 7 billion people on the planet, we need to quit sharing our germs like we all live in some tiny little village with the same 100 or so people and never travel. The fact that we persist with practices that worked okay in such settings is a large part of why we are seeing this pandemic. It absolutely doesn't have to be this way.
