    Millions in China are suffering through severe lockdowns and untold number of medical workers are putting their lives on the line and thus gifting us with time to prepare for a pandemic that will greatly stress our infrastructure. Our lackadaisical approach is unconscionable.🤬🤬

        The full thread from one year ago, today. (This was the turning point for me: I decided I had to start writing on the pandemic myself because I couldn't *find* articles by others to share with people to explain these basic points. If they existed, I'd never have bothered).pic.twitter.com/eyMA4PqPA6

        I had a snapchat memory appear two weeks ago about how my entire office had the "flu" and I was one of the only ones who didn't get it because I isolated myself from them... Ignorance is not bliss.

        When I see people criticizing the Biden admin one month after taking office--following a *full year* of inept inaction--it feels so unfair. Agree? Or am I being too generous?
