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 Clive:


    You mentioned organ harvesting as a possible option for people who died (mainly seniors) from COVID-19.


    Pre-pandemic, I happen to have had a  discussion with a local Heart doctor who has the job of examining people who have recently died in our hospital and he stated that in "seniors" there are very very few that meet the transplant criteria.


    Recent research papers on post-mortems conducted on people of" all ages" who died from COVID-19, have highlight the tremendous amount of damage done to most of their organs.


    So this does not appear to be a viable option.
