In this episode of Positively Pedestrian, we discuss Coronavirus in America and how in this case, probably not the type of Exceptionalism we would like to be known for as Americans. We look at why America is particularly vulnerable to pandemics and why Covid-19 has been particularly deadly for us. Going further, we address lessons not learned and how perhaps constant waves of novel pandemics may very well be the new normal, we and the world may be facing. Unless we are ready to make major changes in land use, our relationship to animals, and address deeply embedded cultural and moral failings, the suffering and death will continue and even intensify! Plus, we look at who and what is to blame.
