Midnight Meme Of The Day!
*by Noah* A little bit of gallows humor to start the week: We might as well use Keith Richards as a barometer for coronavirus since the Trump administration has no clue about anything to do with it. Keith would be a better president too but so would most of us. Yeah, I know Keith Richards wasn't born here but he's certainly over 36 years of age and he's more American than Donnie Head Case will ever be.

Here's What America Must Learn From South Korea's Coronavirus Fight
*Robert E. Kelly* *Health, * South Koreans aren't panicking. *Key point:* There is a remarkable social slow-down all around. South Korea now has the unhappy distinction of being the country with the worst novel corona outbreak in the world after China. The national response has been fascinating to watch. It took awhile for the government to take COVID-19 as seriously as it should have, and the opposition press has been relentless in its criticism. But there is now a widespread social earnestness in the response. You can even get drive-through tested for symptoms for free ( serio... more »
Save the World: Why Planting Trees Is More Important Than Ever
*Philip Dobie* *Environment, World* [image: Reuters] A massive effort is necessary. It’s now over 50 years since the world was first warned that resources were being used at an unsustainable rate. It has now been estimated that almost one quarter to one third of the world’s land is degraded to some extent. Degradation refers to land that’s lost nutrients, or has changed physically, and therefore produces less or supports less life. This is mostly caused by the loss of soil, changes in the quality of the soil, or changes to land cover – like trees being cut down. About 20% of ag... more »
Will Australia’s Hospitals Ger Crippled by Coronavirus?
*Caleb Ferguson* *Public Health, Oceania* [image: Reuters] If we don't slow the spread, Australia's healthcare system will struggle to cope. Australians should now be practising social distancing to slow the spread of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. By creating more space between yourself and others you decrease the risk of person-to-person spread. It’s also essential that confirmed cases, those awaiting test results and people who have recently returned from overseas self-isolate for a minimum of 14 days. The purpose of these public health measures, and others suc... more »

The Truth Behind China’s Ineffective Anti-American Coronavirus Propaganda

An Analysis of the Covid-19 Response: Weighing up the Threat From the Virus, and the Threat From the Reaction
Would you consider the shutting down of an entire national economy for a disease such as the Black Death, which between 1347-1351 killed an estimated 60% of the population in the areas where it spread, to be a proportionate response? What about for a virus which carries — at the very most (see below) — a mortality rate of 1.4% for those who contract it? Such decisions should be weighed in the balances. In the left-hand side, there is the […]
