are there any good non-schizo books about the COVID-19 pandemic and its implications? I've been stuck in my village (population < 500) since March 2020 and I need to know if it wasn't for nothing. and by "schizo" I don't mean "anything slightly disagreeing with the mainstream narrative" because I will gladly accept books which argue that the initial response to the pandemic was too hysterical

Hei anon, I'm in a similar situation and would also be interested in reading something about this. How are you surviving? I felt lonely before but never this kind of lonely, to be honest. I hope you are okay and doing good.

It's pretty good, I had to change by major midway through the pandemic but otherwise I'm fine. I'm more or less withdrawn and reclusive anyway. My advice would be to read as many books as possible to keep those thoughts away.

>Cheer up, weepy genes
>With all of this doom and gloom, you may not suspect your humble author of being a hot-blooded synbio booster. But I believe this field could be the greatest boon to humanity in all of history. Advances resulting from research in synthetic biology could heal our bodies, our planet, and our often-brutal relationships with other creatures—and that’s just the start.

>I’ll add that time is on our side, for now. The most virulent dangers are years away. The worst could-be perpetrators may not be born yet. The darkness that led to Columbine and Newtown is exceedingly rare in humanity, and those it afflicts should always be outnumbered millions-to-one.

>Our deliverance lies in synbio’s own Promethean labs. And in the spirit of biomimicry, we should use its tools to start building an immune system—one for the entire biosphere. I sketch the rawest outline of such a system toward the end of my talk. And while my “ghost story” may stick in more minds, the actual message is one of empowerment and optimism.

If it's not schizo it falls short of the science.
