First, we could have taken this seriously as early as late January, certainly early February when our intelligence community was doing so. Actually WHO had sent out the first, that i know of, reports to all members through the world as early as January 10.

Why down play it ?

You must understand the differences between 1957 and this year. In 1957, despite the many philosophical differences throughout the world, medicine was never made anything other than a threat to human beings. It had not much impact on P motives or aspirations. Scientists throughout the world talked to each other and shared information with no interference.

Today, and throughout this pandemic, we have failed on every level. Heads of state(s) deciding to interfere with real scientific data, research and suggestions for whatever reason.

This Corona virus has been full of overtones from the beginnings.

I offer a suggestion to try to THINKGLOBALHEALTH for information, and lots of pics addressing the who, what, where and when of this and other pandemics. I am not supplying the link since it "may" inadvertently take you to a page not allowed on here although that is NOT the nature of the site
