PRESIDENT: Stephen Quigley - [email protected] MARKETING DIRECTOR: Deb DiGregorio - [email protected] COVID-19 IS A PREDATOR -- AND WE ARE ITS PREY Forum The media, politicians, and others have likened our on- going battle with the corona virus as the equivalent of “go- ing to war.” The doctors and nurses in the overburdened ERs in New York City, when its hospitals were being over- whelmed with corona patients in March, put it this way in discussing the stresses and challenges they were facing when they lacked personal protection equipment, ventila- tors, and other essential medical needs: “It’s like going to war, but without being given guns and ammunition.” But as we enter the fourth month since the start of the lock-downs in many of our states, the “going to war” met- aphor does not seem entirely appropriate. Rather, the corona virus, which is stealthy and unseen except under a microscope (it is 1/1000th the width of a hair on our heads), is more like a hunter seeking its prey -- and its main prey is the human race. We like to think of ourselves as kings of the world, sit- ting atop the food chain. Even if we cannot match a shark in the water or a lion in the jungle, we have weapons read- ily at our disposal to cope with any threats we may face from the natural world. But the corona virus has humbled us. We as a species have proven no match for this pandemic that Mother Na- ture has thrust into our midst. As with any predator in the wild, the corona virus seeks out the easy targets, the old and the weak. Per Darwin’s LETTER to the Editor theory of evolution, only the strongest survive.
