And there's out problem. The covid situation in the US is a trainwreck because we can't get everyone to follow basic hygiene guidelines and practice social distancing.
We could have basically whooped this thing months ago if people weren't violently resisting face masks and similar measures.

- TaylorAlexander 6y agoYes we will voluntarily do better than nothing. It’s still infuriating that tens of thousands have died due to mixed messages about appropriate behavior. We’ve beaten the “do nothing” scenario but that is a very low bar.
