Coronavirus COVID-19 Cure and Dr Shafiq Sit

Dr Shafiq Sit
Dr Shafiq Sit
Some say the Coronavirus is God-sent to compel the world to come together in a collective defence to save mankind. Too much apathy towards global warming etc with our disgraceful meek response in terms of just no single use plastics. That’s definitely not enough.

We are forced to face reality of an ever crowding planet with scarce resources and now finger pointing towards the Chinese is trending. As if that’s going to save the world. As if that’s going to find a cure. Maybe to COVID-19 in 6 months of this posting. What about the next virus we will stumble on to?

Michael Jackson was right. It starts and ends with the man in the mirror.

Too much apathy towards global warming etc with our disgraceful meek response in terms of just no single use plastics. That’s definitely not enough to save us. Even the turtles are laughing. We are forced now to face reality of an increasingly crowded planet with scarce resources fast depleting, and now for some reason finger pointing towards the Chinese is trending. As if that’s going to save the world. As if that’s going to find a cure. Maybe for COVID-19 in 6 months of this posting. What about the next virus we will stumble on to? What if this next one emanates from the U.S. or heaven forbids even maybe Jerusalem? Then how? Look to the U.S. for global leadership? Not going to happen under Trump. He is no Mr Global.
