Eh I think we've all seen a LOT of this in the P&S section. Even for a moment -- if you disregard if the person is obviously one sided or even has used self moderated -- you can see that a lot of the threads in here (and responses to said threads) are slowly turning into spam threads from sig campaigns.
Nothing wrong with being in a signature campaign and making money from something that you love doing on here, but watching people make posts like the one in this thread, which I will link, is really showing a true lack of contribution to the discussion.
But back to the topic: What have we (l)earned:
A large amount of money has to be devoted to researching pandemics of the future to make sure something like this doesn't happen again, or is stopped before it spirals out of control. If we had heeded the warnings of Bill Gates during the Ebola time, we most likely wouldn't have had this as an issue (or at least, we would have had a better chance)
Politics shouldn't get in the way off a pandemic. We've seen fighting on the right and on the left. Issues over wearing masks. Hyper partianship has really killed a lot of unity and working together in this country. We have to fix this somehow.
Quotes from non-contribution posts to this very thread:
For a fact, this epidemic beats the worlds expectation. No one nation was virtually prepared for this and didn't expect it to persist as it has. Though, we continue to battle it, the world now sees the need to prepare for moments like this with quarantine centers across all countries of the world.
what have we earned from handling epidemicsMy earnings are going up. Not in money, but locally, in respect... since people are starting to see that the things I have been telling them about fake Coronavirus statistics are true... 'cause CV stats really are fake.
Heard so many talking about the fake statistics and corona virus, I needing more proof to be convinced that this is truly fake.
Laugh out loud, in a very rare sense, I have earned from the palliative program shared among people in my territory and that's all. I don't think there's any.
