Our team & , continue to mourn the enormous loss of human life due to the rapacious advance of Covid-19. We further grieve the Global magnitude of said loss, as we are aware, that countless deaths could have been prevented by the ameliorating ointment of judicious foresight & risk management! We cannot afford to stall the implementation of a resolute and adaptable containment plan, THAT MUST NOT FAIL NOR BE BESET BY BIGOTRY OR POLITICAL DYSFUNCTION. We must rise above partisanship and nationalism. Moreover, we boldly proclaim that the gravity of this crisis is so dire, that NO FAMILY, IN THE USA, NOR THE WORLD ENTIRE, EXISTS UNSCATHED. Our collective journey as 'one nation under God', exists inextricably linked to the many ethical imperatives that may arise over the course of a unified mission of mercy, that will not stop at protecting just its own, embracing instead, a global G20 initiative that pledges the sharing of substantive 'best practice' procedures and financial subsidy for prevention, treatment and inoculation of all families worldwide. THERE SHALL BE NO MORAL PRESTIGE THAT ENDURES, REGARDING ONE NATIONS TRIUMPH OVER ANOTHER, IF WE DO NOT COMMIT OUR EFFORTS TO HELP THE 'POOR MAJORITY' & AVOID THE ACCELERATION BY THE THROES & WOES OF GLOBALIZED GENOCIDE, BY INACTION. Now more than ever, we should consider the moral imperatives that induce and enable us to 'embrace the better angels of our nature' with a whole and true love. "Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.' 31 The second is this: 'Love your neighbor as yourself.' No other commandment is greater than these.
