| Leadership needed to come from the administration before the pandemic got out of control. If Clinton had been elected and was given the information in January that Trump had, I would like to believe the whole pandemic could have been handled. A short lockdown of 3 weeks, followed by a consistent masking, social distancing, hand washing message, could have contained the virus and kept deaths at a much lower level. Hell, Japan did it, so did Canada, Germany, New Zealand, and others. Then the film and TV stars would have come forward to do their bit. The deep political divisions in the country are very disturbing and are so counterproductive. I'm still concerned that enough people will refuse vaccination and we won't be able to reach herd immunity. Fauci has said we need 70 to 90%. If the magic number is 70%, it's probably doable. But what if the new strains cause the vaccines to be a little less effective and 90% is needed? That could be a huge challenge. |
