I guess noone will ever know if the story would've gotten lost in the noise. And what kind of "punch" is worth tens of thousands of excessive deaths? Do you really believe that anything meaningful will occur to improve our abysmal coronavirus response? In a couple of weeks, there will be a new "crisis" that dominates media, and all of this will just fade into the background noise that has pervaded the last 8 months. States will still be left to their own discretion and devices for dealing with the pandemic; our economy will still be in the shit hole because with a pandemic still rampant, you can't truly get economic recovery; the lies and mis-information in dealing with the virus will continue unabated; and this administration will probably severely damage the effectiveness of an eventual vaccine by undermining the already shaky public confidence in it's efficacy.so I wonder if it would have just been another story that got lost in the chaos that was the first month. But now, after nearly 200,000 deaths? I think it packs more of a punch.
So what meaningful changes do you see in the coming weeks as a result of the fallout from all of this?
