What pandemic teaches perhaps may be there is no
panacea.
As circumstances or crisis like everything else evolve ,
I repeat evolve or emerge first accept the fact and them we need to respond.
However, how we respond will create a template of
attitude, even if it does not offer a total remedy.
In general, not necessarily about health, even other
realms especially economy we must face and accept facts and act with maturity
rationally with scientific, humanitarian and environmental concerns.
As Ayn Rand says, "We can evade reality, but we cannot
evade the consequences of evading reality.“
We must put aside all or at least most of the following
approaches and attitudes.
All types dystopian rhetoric zeal, immature emotional
doomsday resignations, advocacy of outdated, unscientific ( by which I mean not
empirically tested documented, proven and universally accessible methods of
remedy) methods hovering around in the name of much accepted conventional
wisdom, preening of one-upmanship in crisis, radical responses, fanatical
fights and many other irrelevant or irresponsible outbursts.
