CNN: US intelligence community warns of devastating long-term impact of coronavirus pandemic
Washington (CNN)The fallout from the Covid-19 pandemic is poised to fracture societies worldwide, increase instability across the globe and reshape political and economic realities for years to come, the US intelligence community warned in a stark report laying out the top security concerns facing the country.
"The economic fallout from the pandemic is likely to create or worsen instability in at least a few—and perhaps many—countries, as people grow more desperate in the face of interlocking pressures that include sustained economic downturns, job losses, and disrupted supply chains," the report warns.
That dire economic picture boosts the risk of internal conflicts, surges in cross-border migration and even the collapse of national governments, officials warned.

WNU Editor: It rarely happens. But this is one of those times where I agree with the US intelligence community.

American Intel and CNN bad bad bad
Until what they say is something I agree with
If I accept what they say, then they are just fine
Otherwise.....
The only thing creating instability and shaping realities is the response to COVID.
The only thing that I have seen that is scary is potential blood clotting. I have heard researchers/doctors say aspirin will help and will not help. I have only seen one nursing home close. They spread out the patients in the nursing home, which was closing, to other nursing homes. What percentages of patients died, I do not know. They might have had people refuse to become patients at the nursing home for some odd reason. At any rate a nursing home has the same economics as a factory producing widgets. When you are at 90% to 95% capacity you should thinking about expanding. Overtime and or extras shift will only get you so far.

One. Just one nursing home closed. Some epidemic.
The average stay in a nursing home is 5 months. You could not cut the average stay at a nursing home by 1/2 a year if you tried. You could euthanize every elderly person in a nursing home prog style while uttering prog slogans and you could not decrease the average by 6 months.
I fail to see the emergency.
Again, what about action?
