One of the reasons for the massive fires in Australia earlier this year, yes that was this year, was ineffective firebreaks. Fires skipped fire breaks due to flaming embers carried on strong winds. The virus that started in Wuhan skipped across the world because none of our firebreaks were effective. Now This Pandemic crisis is knocking over industries like a wild bushfire with no interruption. Everyone is going to be seriously affected by this crisis. This future is going to arrive everywhere but not at the same time. There are first order , second order and many other order effects. Sick citizens are first order , sick doctors are second , quarantine with no travel is third , collapsing oil demand is fourth , declining number of active oil rigs Is fifth etc. The service industry with face to face interaction is the one of the first order effects. This infection gets to everyone eventually. Unless Governments and citizens globally can establish a firebreak. It’s not too late. Either establish and hold a line or accept the global conflagration.
This is a year of ineffective firebreaks
