(The best time: "so far")
Hehehe, that might actually be true :)
But I'm not sure that there is a fixed number plagues that we must endure, maybe they could have been averted :D
(Whether at epicenter in China or in local communities around the world)
- tathougies 6y agoWell I don't disagree, but given the devastation in Europe, I'm not sure America had much of a chance to be spared. That is to say -- if there is a problem with not having prepared, it seems that the entire Western world was susceptible, not uniquely america
- jopsen 6y agoFair enough, once it left China the only question was how hard it would hot everybody else. (Ie. How well prepared/responsive we were) My point was that, it's not really a matter of picking the best time for a pandemic to hit. But rather about averting or minimizing pandemics :)
