The key will be for a better public health response, stockpiling of preventative equipment, sanitary products, testing kits en mass ala what some Asian nations like South Korea have done. Hopefully more western nations will follow suit now they have experience in a modern pandemic. Maybe we need to adjust our nation’s defences accordingly against the real threats we face.
Forgot one more thing. Western nations need to start eating properly, stop eating crap food or else your gut will give you any disease you like.
