That was probably fairly accurate at that time.

I never thought I'd say this, but looks like we need more pandemics!

This is actually a thought that some climate deniers have. "Climate change is a hoax to control you, covid was the trial run".

Unsurprisingly, the people who say that publicly tend to be funded by oil.

Why doesn’t anyone ever think COVID was sent by God to give us a reprieve and a chance to get our act together, which we’re now squandering?
