This article is about science - not politics

Our society has been awash in the Covid-19 virus long enough that now Science Magazine has devoted nearly an entire article to it.

I created this Thread in the Main-Discussion Section by accident.
I have already asked Admin to move it to the Chit-Chat Section.

Thanks for sharing. I have had many dealings with AAAS in the past and it is a first rate science organization, with no politics attached.

Only non-scientists think that way.
Gravity works the same way for Conservatives and Liberals.
Cold Fusion works for neither Conservatives nor Liberals.

Thanks for not making this political just facts.
Too many people are making it political, it’s not, it’s a disease with devastating consequences.

Cold fusion? It does not work for anyone as far as I know.

That was the point of that post - science works {or doesn't work} exactly the same regardless of one's politics.

Thanks for the article. A lot of people don't think about it, but the yearly flu is the remnants of the Spanish flu from 1918 that killed 2.5 million. Now we don't take all that many precautions for the flu and about 30,000 people in the USA die from for the whole year. It will take time and vaccine to drive COVID-19 down to those numbers. With each passing day, the medical field is slowly getting closer to the day they can produce medicine and drugs specifically designed and built for a specific disease or genetic defect. Unfortunately, for a lot of us, it will not be soon enough.

Thanks for the article. A lot of people don't thin... (show quote)

and over time medicine will learn how to hand side-effects of the virus - but it will take time.
