The rise of these variants shows that we have to do a much better job with genomic analysis and surveillance and we have to be willing to be more proactive about shutting down travel to/from regions where these variants show up. I'm just not sure we have the political will to do what the science would suggest - we didn't for the original covid-19 and as it spread around the world political leaders of all stripes were slow to listen to the scientists. I guess I'm not sure that's going to change.
