I'm curious about the "next crisis" and whether or not there's a swing in the other direction though. I feel like we're stuck in hindsight bias, and forgetting that a lot of decisions weren't made in ideal circumstances. That's not to say that there's not things to learn, and that's not to say that these lessons shouldn't be analyzed. But during a crisis you have to balance skepticism and doubt with the need to take decisive action. The fact that we seem to be focusing our blame on the scientific community, rather than politicians, is this magical judo that politicians have made. The scientists goal is to share the data and it's impacts, the politicians is to shape that data and impact into policy.
