Mek mi try explain: A hurricane is a natural hazard. The disaster is linked to impact on human life and is based on our level of preparedness. If a hurricane flattens an unoccupied island that is of no economic value we wouldn’t generally consider it a disaster in that area.

If we lockdown nationally again it will be bec the time from the 1st lockdown wasn’t efficiently used to avoid a 2nd one. That should’ve been the focus of any govt. Not pretend it’s all back to normal. The ultimate priority should’ve been an anti-lockdown system that save lives.

No one thing is going to stop Covid, but we can chip away at the risk. We need to reduce spread through the 3W’s (wear a mask, wash your hands, watch your distance) and closing risky indoor spaces, and stop spread when it occurs through testing, tracing, and isolation.

There's plenty of room for disagreement and debate in our society, but one thing is clear: masks reduce the spread of Covid and save lives.

We must all be united in offering assistance to everyone suffering in Puerto Rico and elsewhere in the wake of this terrible disaster.
