We’re supposed to be the “smart” species on the planet, but I’m sorry to report that as a species, we really aren’t smart enough to stay alive. Or, in any case we don’t have the needed self-control.
Forget, for a moment, about our inability to accept, handle or effectively deal with climate change. Let’s just look at Covid-19 for the moment.
We are so close to the finish line.
We are so close to the finish line.
But we just can’t keep ourselves from opening up too soon, even here in progressive Massachusetts. We’re seeing a renewed uptick, this time in the more dangerous and infectious versions of the virus, especially among people under 30 (who are largely unvaccinated).
Why, oh why, can’t just wait for two or three more months when it really will be safe to reopen. How does sort of kind of quasi-reopening help anybody now?
