What are we going to do about the COVID-2X and COVID-3X World wide Pandemics?

The big question is how society is going to change as multiple waves of COVID-19 and new viruses appear over the next 20 years.

Business models supporting sharing of physical objects appear to be in jeopardy (example "ride sharing" transportation).

Hello Malcolm:

I came across this article in today's JAMA about Electric scooter accidents in the USA over the past couple of years. It shows the rapid increase in head injuries.

As I indicted in one of my earlier posts I am very concerned about safety (or lack of) in one's chosen transportation system.

In my care free youth in the London I had a 1954 NSU Electric Start Scooter (based on the Lambreta) which I used to get to work using the Great West Road.

The big safety problem during winter time was "black ice" on the road.
