        I'm just a simple country girl, but that sounds a lot like the barn door closing when the horse's body is definitely cold and stiff.

        Covid won’t be the next nay pandemic. There are flu viruses and other SARS viruses that could generate a pandemic if they mutate just right and get into the human population. This is a good thing the WHO is doing.

        Let’s hope this is the beginning of an international agreement on how to cooperate to avoid millions of deaths.

        This model ensures that it will be an exercise in political horse-trading, instead based on rigorous science.
