[quote=Anonymous]I was speaking to a Norwegian guy the other night. He said the difference with them vs. us in Covid is that they are a high trust society. When Covid started, their government said “we don’t know what this is. We will be cautious and ease up when we know more (or not.)” People trusted them, and then they followed through. Their kids were back in school much faster than in our Blue areas, there was far less social upheaval, and it didn’t really become political. Here, it quickly became a political litmus test and irrational. “Trust the science” was a Democrat slogan, and “Fauci” was a devil to the right. In MoCo in particular Covid zero became an almost jihadist obsession. In other areas not getting the vaccine was a badge of honor. Anyone reasonable who actually looked at data lost faith in government. We will never be able to move forward until we regain public trust and move away from partisanship as our national pastime.[/quote]
