When the normally non-partisan New England Journal of Medecine speaks
out, we should pay attention:

Of course we all know where the nexus of the leasership vacuum is
located.

Covid-19 has created a crisis throughout the world. This crisis has
produced a test of leadership. With no good options to combat a novel
pathogen, countries were forced to make hard choices about how to
respond. Here in the United States, our leaders have failed that test.
They have taken a crisis and turned it into a tragedy.

The magnitude of this failure is astonishing. According to the Johns
Hopkins Center for Systems Science and Engineering,1 the United States
leads the world in Covid-19 cases and in deaths due to the disease,
far exceeding the numbers in much larger countries, such as China. The
death rate in this country is more than double that of Canada, exceeds
that of Japan, a country with a vulnerable and elderly population, by
a factor of almost 50, and even dwarfs the rates in
lower-middle-income countries, such as Vietnam, by a factor of almost
2000. Covid-19 is an overwhelming challenge, and many factors
contribute to its severity. But the one we can control is how we
behave. And in the United States we have consistently behaved poorly.

But everyone knows the NE Journal of Medicine is a commie journal...

This is the first time they have commented on a political issue in
over 200 years, well before Karl Marx was born.


Oh, come on, the irony didn't go over your head. I fed you a straight line.


Where is Congress in this? Maybe they should all be fired for
incompetence!
