Many of you may have already read the front-page article in the Wall Street Journal on April 28: “Scientists, Billionaires Mount Manhattan Project for Covid-19.” For those whose knowledge of US history isn’t the best, the “Manhattan Project” concentrated on developing the US atomic bomb during World War II. As a former microbiologist who once planned to enter the field of public health microbiology (before the funding for training was cut by the State of California), the WSJ article was of great interest to me.
I’m attaching the link to an article just published online in Global Research. Within that article is the link to the 17-page proposal of twelve world renowned US scientists (including one Nobel Laureate) on how to approach the Covid-19 problem with both speed and safety. I don’t know if our government is ready for accomplishing anything with such speed and efficiency. I at least hope they will give it a try.
Stay safe.
