Well said by Martin Wolf, Putin represents an existential threat to us, our system of government. He must fail. We have to support Ukraine in defeating him. ft.com/content/ed17265c-5ff6…

Fear mongering about lockdowns lasting for months is wrong. If we really lock down, in 2 weeks we know everyone infected now. They can be isolated. The next two weeks only people they live with might be sick. That is why it can be fast. See China attached.

Coronavirus is an epidemic for our times, writes Henry Mance, chiming with society’s fears as politics swing against open borders and global supply chains. Will we decide that horizons should not be so open after all? ft.com/content/8044788c-5e05…

Must read 👇 Ignore the disclaimer at the top. This is a clear and on target explanation of the exponential dynamics of outbreaks and why they are catching people off guard who don't understand complex systems. @nntaleb Outstanding:

Drei meiner Freunde - Ärzte und Pharmazeuten - warnen vor dem Virus. Ich bin sehr froh, dass meine Kumpels, die Politikwissenschaften und Publizistik studiert haben, das gleich als Panikmache entkräften konnten. Glück gehabt.
