Now that we have a real POTUS and real professionals doing everything they know how to do, it seems we're about to see another pretty ugly round of "American Exceptionalism will save us!" - and another nail is driven into Irony's coffin lid as "conservatives" enjoy the benefits of hiding behind the expertise of people they've spent years spitting on.


Global pandemic needs a more global response, Fauci says, amid record-breaking deaths in India

Top U.S. infectious-disease expert Anthony S. Fauci said Wednesday that the world has failed so far in tackling the global nature of the pandemic with a suitably global response, leading to tragedies like the current coronavirus outbreak in India.

The nation of more than 1.3 billion is in the grip of a devastating surge, with more than 360,000 new cases in the past 24 hours — another global record — and 3,293 deaths, raising the toll past 200,000. Hospitals and crematoriums have been overwhelmed, and global assistance is only now slowly trickling in.

“The only way that you’re going to adequately respond to a global pandemic is by having a global response, and a global response means equity throughout the world,” Fauci told the Guardian Australia.
