Re: Corona Virus: is it the beginning of the end?
This is the government. Politicians and other agencies tend to spend money on pointless stuff all the time. That's actually by design. Great for preventing hostile powers from quickly taking over a country, crap for dealing with an emergency.
Anyway, I think this entire pandemic is enlightneing on highlighting the various vulnerabilities country governments have in an entirely disruptive event. Also, which countries would get ruined in a deadlier pandemic. Considering how freaking suicidal Americans have been just for the social media memes, I'm pretty sure a more infectious virus with a higher death rate would be quite destructive to this country with the current response. Compare this to other countries with a far more comprehensive pandemic response plan. Some countries sitll have their internal economies and socail life chugging like normal, with a majority of Covid cases isolated and treated. Whether that be an extensive online tracking program, investigative departments using farensic tactics to track down people that may of been infected by a covid victim for isolation and early treatment, etc.
...In short, a lot of countries are making The U.S look bad. I know there's talk that this may of been some man made attack, but that's thinking too small. I think what's more worrying that groups might be observing the weaknesses of countries in responding to a biological attack. Hitting some places like South korea and the like would probably be useless, but considering the slow governmental and social response to a normal disease in the U.S... right. Screw nukes. let's start the bioweapons division up again. We're already confused why the current president did not initiate the pandemic response plans developed during the bush Administration. Especially since he claims he knew about the virus earlier than most other countries, you think you'd bust out the plans at that time to prepare as early as some other nations.
