I will vouch for that that protection is needed, greatly in part because we have escalated it. But it’s real. But the efforts are riddled with fraud, waste & abuse. Tho I believe we should have tackled #COVID19 with the same fervour. Priorities lie with the MIC, obviously.

They are not out of their minds. It is all about the money, and nothing else. Human compassion at the leadership level is gone!
