#6   Thanks for the hand-holding this morning re the Italian thing.

Twern’t nothin’, Bubba Guelph6895. It was an interesting thread, and quite possibly the bit I found was posted after you posted the link. I generally read things that y’all post — it’s an efficient way to learn new things. :-)

Our systems have been getting more complex, and therefore more dangerously fragile when faced with a black swan event or even just a normal disaster. If the coronavirus pandemic turns out not to be the plague with tens of millions or even hundreds of millions dead that some are predicting, then all of the panicky preparations and reworking of procedures made this time round will have us all realigned toward resilient practices that will definitely help us cope better with the next serious problem, whether medical or otherwise.

#5   It's on the Internet, so you know it's true

And it's from the government, so it's here to help you! Our lucky day, innit?

I'm going with "both," tw -- everyone's a propagandist now, or so I've heard. Thanks for the hand-holding this morning re the Italian thing. I should've skimmed down the replies when I first read it; political tilt couldn't be missed. I'm staying paranoid for now, against my better judgement, but if this plays out as a sub-flu nothingburger in the US, docs are in for a whopping big dose of what journalists have been getting these last years.

#4  A search of Nindhita Yusvantika yielded another site where (s)he posted an article about the university as a comment. Creative PR flack or widely read enthusiast?
