You should read an article here. It's largely an expose of the fact that Trump was warned about the seriousness of COVID-19 in January and February. Very soon I'll add a couple more relevant links.
UPDATE Another relevant article.
One thing that the first article touches on reminds me of something else. When people say we lose a similar number of people each year from the flu, they're ignoring a couple things. First, early on there was plenty of evidence that COVID-19 is VERY communicable and more likely to result in death than the flu. Second, COVID-19 deaths are IN ADDITION to earlier flu deaths in the 2019/2020 flu season.
This blog is mostly about 3 themes- Irish Republicanism, Star Trek, and opposition to bigotry, primarily in America (racism, homophobia, anti-semitism, etc.). It is mostly about Northern Ireland. It will mostly be about these issues in general and past events and will only sometimes touch on current events. Feel free to comment on the earlier posts.
About My Blog
My blog is about history, popular culture, politics and current events from a democratic socialist and Irish republican perspective. The two main topics are Northern Ireland on one hand and fighting anti-Semitism, racism and homophobia on the other. The third topic is supporting the Palestinians, and there are several minor topics. The three main topics overlap quite a bit. I have to admit that it’s not going to help me get a graduate degree, especially because it’s almost always written very casually. But there are some high-quality essays, some posts that come close to being high-quality essays, political reviews of Sci-Fi TV episodes (Star Trek and Babylon 5), and a unique kind of political, progressive poetry you won't find anywhere else. (there are also reviews of episodes of Law and Order: Special Victims Unit and reviews of Roseanne)
