We Weren't Designed (or Evolved) For This

Covid 19 spread too quickly. You know why, we weren't designed for this speed or amount of people. Studies have shown we can only care about 150 people (fewer if you're a Republican*).

And for the first few years decades centuries melennia we couldn't go much faster than we could run.

 

Then came cars and trains - and the first world war.

Then came planes and submarines and faster ships - and then the second world war.

Then came jets and world travel and Covid 19.

I don't think we should stop, but we should at least acknowledge that our eyes are bigger than our bellies to mangle an old saying.
