Human Malware!

An Old Fox's life
With all this Crono virus shit going around The Tech industry calls it the Human Malware.. People these days just have no idea of what happened perhaps 70 + years back.. Whole towns shut down States and even the country for another issue.. Polio! Yes I remember my step dad telling us kids that there were summers where you stayed home. No running around outside or going to the beach or the Quarry where we swam often when I was a young kid. Todays Modern medicine has virtually removed Polio from our society. Even as a child we had days and weeks when school was closed.. The Measles and the Mumps were still out and going around. Every year around Basketball time Most of us got the Flu from the others returning from the tournaments with it. So at least my Generation still have memorys of the nasty things that can happen from a Virius or Desease that is passed around.
One thing that saved most of us from having such Epidemics going around was that back then the world was more Remote. Contact was not as massive as today.. We did not have people flying all around the world on a daily basis. I once asked about what was so different now than when my Step Dad was a kid. He sat and thought for just a moment and said. "The world is Smaller now." I was puzzled for a moment and he said. "When we were kids a volcano blew up on the other side of the world and it would take weeks or even months for us to find out about it if at all. These days The world knows about it in seconds." It was more than true. Today if Our presiden Farts loudly the world knows.
So, our Pandemic is a problem because when it started people ignored all the warning signs. People infected Traveled not knowing they had it because the Goverment authoritys did not want to let everyone know there was a problem.. In just a couple of weeks it had spread to many other countrys. Our own country brought infected people back. Instead of Banning Travel to or from the USA. We openly let it happen here. I cant say enough about the Stupidity of goverment and other goverments covering up and then letting this spread across the world. It shows that the people in charge really do not give a shit about the people they govern and are only reactive to save their jobs and themselves.
At this point in the Pandemic the gates are wide open and the flood can not be stopped. Maybe people will learn to not be so stupid. Perhaps we can get new people in our goverment that have Brains and want to protect our citizens. I hope that I do not get the virius. But Darwin is out there and there are more canadates to join his crew. Be Smart, Wash your hands. Stay away from others. Use your head and what your great grand parents did back in the polio days..

FA+

Just, the longer you wait, the more costly it becomes:
More loss in human life, stricter quarantine rules, less people available to keep the gears going properly.
I think here in Germany we pulled the plugs early enough.
Aside of people mixing up Corona with diarrhea and buying loopaper like stupid, all is fine so far.
