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

Peter Brooks
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:


    In a couple of these comments, reference has been made to the model used by Sweden to handle the COVID-19 pandemic.


    My first question is to ask "Why can't there be multiple ways to successfully handle the pandemic"? 


    What makes England so different from Sweden?

    My conclusion is that the English lack social discipline. They haven't had it in the past and I fear they never will, at least while the pubs remain open.


    For examples look at the 1700's as shown by William Hogarth in his engraving "Gin Lane." or the movie "Easy Street" by Charlie Chaplin (taken from his experience living in London in the early 1900) or look at the recent newspaper pictures of the young people coming out of the pubs.
