Update: COVID 19
COVID19 is multi-dimensional disease.
Medical Disease: SARS CoV-2 emerged in late 2019 as a viral infection.
Political Disease: Early in 2020 COVID19 rapidly became politicized.
Legal Disease: As the epidemic progressed it rapidly took on a legal dimension. This was related to the authority a government, corporation and or organization would have to enforce laws or policies.
Personal Liberty Disease: Over time the issue of personal liberty to choose to comply or not with laws, regulations and/or policies emerged. This most recently occurred with the right to to take a vaccine or not.
This results in a very complex pathway even blocking mitigation and or treatment.
