Hey guys. Specifically the “response to the pandemic will be worse than the pandemic” gang.

1) Please read literature published by the WHO. Your statement doesn’t square with the death rate models.

2) Can you show us on the graph where we’ll be when service workers are dead.
“But my business doesn’t involve any service workers!”

K, leaving aside for the moment that you’re a bastard:

Your business exists in a web of interconnected goods and services broadly referred to as “the economy”.

Which, in SA’s case, is heavily reliant on service workers.
I hope this is a moment where we can have a reckoning with two important things:

1) how unequal our society is

2) belief in the excellence of our government, and therefore our ability to change our country

But that conversation probably won’t include you dickheads.
