This is a relatively short list of most-valuable links I've found, related to the covid-19 crisis, worth sharing or revisiting.
And then the Holderness family deserves their own list! If you like these, you can search for others they've made.
No matter what they say now, it's too late for the Trump administration to fix their astonishing blunders (and denial) from the last few months. As a nation we had plans in place, but they were ignored, and the relevant experts were fired, reorg'd out of power, or muzzled. I hope history will hold Trump & co accountable, even if their cultish see-no-evil followers do not.
Worse, while we squandered a lot of precious time in Jan-Feb until getting serious this month, and now we are hopefully buying more time at tremendous cost (to society and to the national debt), I see little evidence showing that time is being wisely used top-down to do now what should have been done earlier: Marshalling national resources in an efficient and organized way to create more and better tests, PPE and ventilators, and vaccines. What is going on looks to me like a patchwork mosaic of bottoms-up efforts, while Trump & co fiddle to his base, and Rome burns.
