Former U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Jocelyn Elders has drafted an open letter to virologists, medical professionals and those in the front lines of the battle to save lives, to join in an "international, coordinated and integrated educational campaign to establish a sane approach" to address the continuing threat from COVID 19 and the potential of future pandemics.  The politicization of the disease has stoked panic and hysteria, heightening polarization, which has undermined adopting a competent approach to public health.  The takedown of the health care system in the industrialized world -- typified by privatization and disastrous legislation such as Obama-care -- left nations unprepared to deal with a pandemic.  Dr. Elders' statement can be found at the link below; Read it, discuss it, and join us in circulating it.
