Have you featured MR’s response to COVID19? I think it’s the best so far, across socialist and bourgeois analyses. It gets us away from imagining the Asian/Western affluent countries’ variously-lengthy population isolation and immobilization strategies (as they are and are not supported by public health infrastructure), and the corresponding underdeveloped countries’ herd immunity default, as the only grave issues we face. (As suggested by the cartoon indicating that global economic depression would be less significant, including on populations’ health and mortality, than the current virus pandemic.)
Hi, Oleg.
Have you featured MR’s response to COVID19? I think it’s the best so far, across socialist and bourgeois analyses. It gets us away from imagining the Asian/Western affluent countries’ variously-lengthy population isolation and immobilization strategies (as they are and are not supported by public health infrastructure), and the corresponding underdeveloped countries’ herd immunity default, as the only grave issues we face.

Best, Mara
