The pandemic is not a surprise to scientists. They’ve been sounding the alarm for decades, their words unheeded by major political leaders. Expect more tragedies until they are...globalecoguy.org/after-the-s…

Scientists have a voice in Washington, but they lack political power. They lack financial leverage - their advice doesn’t often increase short term corporate profits - and it’s money, not wisdom, that runs DC. Until we get the money out of politics, such insanity will prevail.

The #coronavirus pandemic WAS a surprise to MANY scientists - including the World health Organization - they downplayed this, remember? Well into February... Major political leaders relied on scientists from WHO for their initial response.

No surprise to scientists... “Their words have gone largely unheeded by large portions of our political leadership. And why? Because they don’t represent financial leverage-what they say doesn’t increase short term corp. profit-and it is money not wisdom that runs Washington.” MW

I can't believe we weren't prepared for this. Was there really no plan?
Replying to @marwilliamson
I do agree with you that we need to expect more from scientists.

How is a country meant to prepare for EVERY eventuality with limited resources? Geniuses can warn about everything, but where’s the money to prepare for things that might never happen

Yes, human beings live on the earth & are linked to the biological and physical systems that exist on the earth. Failure to recognize & act on this knowledge threatens our lives and the lives of generations to come.
