[QUOTE="tadpole, post: 5439392, member: 53369"] I loved this! Then I went on to read the article they're referencing in The Atlantic might have a paywall but here it is: [URL="https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2022/10/covid-response-forgiveness/671879/"]Let’s Declare a Pandemic Amnesty[/URL] It cracked me up so hard and at the same time made me so happy. The article says everybody was in the dark, trying to figure out what to do. Some people turned out to be right, but they were lucky and right for the wrong reasons. ROFL!!!! Hmm, maybe a CORONA VIRUS, which we know mutate extremely rapidly, which we've never been able to make a successful vaccine against, maybe it's not the best idea to pay for a vaccine's R&D upfront, before we know if it will even work, or if it will be safe. And then maybe it's not the best idea to force people to take it or lose their job. That sounds kind of wrong, huh? Don't get me started on the masks. [/QUOTE]
