I was overwhelmed with the pandemic. Frankly, the Wuhan story was nothing compared with what followed through to the rest of the world. It is almost like I couldn't breathe any longer, the images of the health workers on code blue round the clock were not at all comforting. The images were aggravating.
But I do find my self learning from the daily briefing in New York, for out there, the state has a governor that very well could be the nation's de facto president.
Why?
Because the governor has a passion for details. The little things matter to him, including this farmer's selfless gesture that could mean a life of a doctor and lives of patients also in critical condition.

That new York Govenor is killing trump, straight smashing him out of compassion. I would be proud if I was New York. Yeah, its not going well, but you found a good leader for the days to come. One of the few that is not scared of Trump on top of it.

America must invoke the 25th amendment. Incapacity by reason of insanity.
Before America goes down. The CCP is ready with the warfare. Our West Philippine Sea had been claimed by China. Missiles in that tiny island.

I think you're right and it's the moment that all leaders should come up and do their bit

The pandemic separates the true leaders from the demagogues. Boris Johnson of the UK is a huge fail.
