The ongoing pandemic you mean? Something has gone wrong, yes - unmitigated spread of an airborne virus that has turned tens of thousands of highly qualified, highly skilled professionals into the ‘economically inactive’. This will continue indefinitely if covid is not addressed.

They could have invested in ventilation and filtration, ensured hospitals had improved infection control measures

They didn't want to pay the upfront costs and now they are faced with the bill for their decisions they decide to blame and punish the victims of their decisions

genuinely don’t even need a paternity test

The state of this place… Ads like this AI-generated danger, popping up as if posted by a real user. Frustrating how quickly it’s all gone to shit. Like the opposite of King Midas’ touch.
