Future generations may not forgive the World Health Organization’s member nations, should they fail to agree on a pandemic treaty, the organization’s chief said Saturday at the Warwick Economic Summit, calling the agreement “mission critical for humanity.”
Despite lessons that should have been learned during COVID-19, the world is unprepared for the next pandemic, be it an influenza virus, another coronavirus, or “Disease X”—a term the organization has used since 2018 to refer to a yet-unknown pandemic pathogen, Director General Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus said, speaking virtually from Geneva at the summit, held in Coventry, England.

The amount of compium I see in people is scary. This was the warning. Next time could be so much worse and all I see are adults who just act like children. *EDIT Had to add so many people I use to even respect. Once they were told to many times what to do had adult temper tantrums. Acting straight out weird.
Ebola was the preview. COVID was the tutorial. We barely got through them after countless sacrifices made by people who actually gave a damn and even put their own lives at risk.
Never was sure how Captain Trips spread so easily in The Stand. Boy did COVID make it clear how easy it happened.
