Interesting quote:
What’s disappointed me about the way this [pandemic] has been approached is it has been approached along a single axis, which, if you like, is a scientific one. Even within that context, you could argue that it’s too one-dimensional, so we’re not thinking about what’s happening with other infectious diseases or how many people are going to die of cancer.
That’s the axis of disease, but then there’s the socioeconomic axis, which has been ignored. But there’s a third, aesthetic axis, which is about how we want to live our lives. We are closing ourselves off not just to the disease, but to other aspects of being human.
