There is nothing good about a global pandemic. But it does offer a wake up call. And a wake up call is sorely needed.
This could be a much longer post and maybe sometime soon it will be. But for the moment, just a few thoughts.

This post while similar is more about trusting a person/institution for information; or relying on their dependability when other norms fail.
If there is anything 2020 should have taught you it’s that institutions can be crippled overnight.
