Right. Inevitable in a joined-up world. Understanding the science matters. Right now the political focus is currently informed most by epidemic science of spread. There are other things not yet in the public arena. Some virologists believe that getting infected with an early strain of a virus gives some considerable protection against later more dangerous variants. This an issue where science and social policy cross. In other words it might be better not to lockdown but focus on palliative care. FYI, my area is so locked down that a friend can't visit me from a very nearby town with no infections without filing a police report. I simply don't know enough. But questions are arising & some social discontent. Best wishes TT -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TiddlyWiki" group.
