In the wake of any disaster--a train derailment, a plane crash, a rocket explosion, a reactor meltdown, a terror attack or a war--the causes of the disaster are investigated and the findings are used to inform policy changes to reduce the risks and the impacts of future disasters
In the wake of the COVID-19 disaster--the greatest disaster the world has faced since since World War II--an investigation of the causes of the disaster and policy changes to reduce the risk and impact of similar future disasters are urgently needed.
However, no such investigation has occurred. (WHO mission was not set up to be an investigation, did not operate as an investigation, provided absolutely no new information, and as such cannot, even in principle, help reduce the risks and the impacts of similar future disasters.)
Still waiting for the House E&C majority, especially Committee Chair Frank Pallone, Jr., to initiate the long, long overdue investigation.
