What have we learned:
1 - A lot!
2 - Having decoded the virus’ genetics, vaccine development will be faster than prior, if possible
3 - the virus mimics bradykinin storms in the body, more a vascular event than previously thought google covid Tennessee super computer analysis from July
4 - Everyone likes more data, but more data is harder to synthesize without the required experience / knowledge
5 - social media is an echo chamber for what people want to believe - and has confirmation bias built in as a bonus
6 - managing a very large independent population with information and voluntary compliance with worldwide social media is very very hard, really impossible
7 - one can decode another’s personality type / time preferences of beliefs wrt workforce mgmt / science / analysis / economics from reactions posted on social media. (How many dimensions of a problem can one identify, with secondary and tertiary effects with humans who have no std deviations of outcomes)
8 - the virus is incredibly contagious through the air and information increases over time over time with study and analysis. ( read up on anchoring bias)
9 - humans dislike change, don’t perceived very small risks with very significant outcomes well ( think people living below dams with cracks)
10 - everyone wants everyone else to be treated equal but the self wants to be treated special ( no one will admit to being below average driver , who are those people anyway?)
