Chitetezo, amati asayansi amtendere, ndizochitikira komanso chiyembekezo chokhala ndi moyo wabwino. Kusanthula kasamalidwe ka mliri waukulu wa Ebola wa 2014 ku West Africa ndikophunzitsa chifukwa cha kufalikira kwa Covid 19 padziko lonse lapansi. Ngakhale zinali zovuta mkati mwa UN, makamaka dongosolo la veto lomwe limayika mamembala pazolinga zosiyanasiyana, bungweli lidatsimikizira kufunika kwake.

Kusamveka bwino kwamakhalidwe, ngakhale kusazindikira, zamafuta ndi Africom pambali, kuyankha kwa America kunali kwamphamvu kwambiri. Kusiyanitsa ndi kuyang'anira kufalikira kwa Covid '19 ndikokulirapo. Eugene Jarecki adanena posachedwapa Washington Post op-ed"Zikadakhala kuti malangizowo akadakhazikitsidwa kale, nthawi yofunika kwambiri pakufalikira kwa kachilomboka ikadachepetsedwa… A Jarecki webusaitiTrumpDeathClock.com ikuwonetsa kufa kwa COVID-19 ndipo gawo lomwe likuyerekezeredwa kuti lingalephereke, 53,781 omwalira osafunikira a COVID-19 ku America kuyambira pa Meyi 17.

Kunyumba pambuyo pochiza odwala m'zipatala za ku Liberia, anthu awiri a ku America adapezeka ndi Ebola mu July 2014. Nkhaniyi inachititsa kuti anthu azidandaula kwambiri ndipo ngakhale kuti onse awiri adachira mwamsanga, adalepheretsa odzipereka a UN. Donald Trump, panthawiyo, adanyoza akuluakulu onse ndi ovutika. Atalangizidwa kuti mosayang'aniridwa, kachilombo koyambitsa matenda kakhoza kupha anthu miliyoni, ndiye Purezidenti Obama adayika Pentagon, National Security ndi CDC ntchito yopanga limodzi "ntchito yogwira ntchito ndi gawo lachipatala".

Panthawiyi, kazembe wa USUN, Samantha Power, adalimbikitsa anzake a National Security omwe adaphunzira nawo zankhondo kuti akonzekere msonkhano wadzidzidzi wa UN kuti akwaniritse chigamulo cholengeza Ebola 'chowopseza mtendere ndi chitetezo padziko lonse lapansi'. Sikuti Liberia, Guinea ndi Sierra Leone, mayiko okhudzidwa kwambiri, adalembetsa mosavuta koma chiwerengero chachikulu cha mayiko omwe akuthandizira nawo, 134 adapereka chigamulo pa 18 September. Zopereka zinali zowolowa manja poyankha pempho lopempha thandizo la mayiko osiyanasiyana pazadzidzidzi. Obama adatenganso njira ina yatsopano potumiza asitikali a 3,000 kuti amange ma Units Ochizira Ebola ndikuphunzitsa ogwira ntchito zachipatala m'malo ovuta.

Kumayambiriro kwa Okutobala, wogwira ntchito zonyamula anthu waku America adamwalira atadwala pobwera kuchokera ku Monrovia, komwe kuli Ebola. Ogwira ntchito m'chipatala omwe amamusamalira adagwiranso kachilomboka, modabwitsa anthu. Pochitapo kanthu mwachangu kuti aletse ndi kuchiza milandu, a Obama adaloleza CDC kuti iwonetsere kwambiri aliyense amene wapita kumalo omwe ali ndi kachilomboka, monganso wovulala wina waku America (wotsiriza), MD wa Doctors Without Borders waku New York adapezeka. Obama adafuna kupewa kutsekeredwa m'nyumba zosafunikira monga Bwanamkubwa Cuomo ndi ena omwe amakakamiza nzika zopanda zizindikiro. 'Kuli bwino ndi kwabwino', Obama ankamveka kunena - kuchita zinthu zolimbikitsa osati 'kusilira vuto'.

Kuti athetse mantha, kulimbikitsa chikhalidwe komanso kuchepetsa kusalana, adakumbatira odwala omwe adachira omwe adaitanidwa kuti akacheze ku White House. Adatumiza Kazembe wa UN ku West Africa, akuwonetsa kale milandu yopitilira 10,000 ndi kufa 500. Mphamvu zimatsata mosamalitsa ma protocol kuphatikiza kusalumikizana ndi anthu komanso kuwunika zamankhwala, ndikuwona njira zomwe zasinthidwira bwino pakuyika maliro otetezeka komanso kuyezetsa kwakukulu. Ogwira ntchito ophunzitsidwa bwino atha kugwira ntchito zawo chifukwa cha thandizo lanzeru padziko lonse lapansi.

Zilengezo zopanda matenda zidapangidwa Chaka Chatsopano chisanachitike ponena za mayiko atatu aku Africa omwe adakhala ndi ziwonetsero zambiri. Pa nthawiyi, mgwirizano wanzeru pakati pa mayiko a UN unagonjetsa mliriwu. Asilikali adasintha kukhala oyeretsa chitetezo chenicheni chopereka thanzi, maphunziro ndi mgwirizano, kuwonetsa chitetezo chapadziko lonse lapansi chopereka chithandizo chapamwamba. m'malo mwa nkhondo.
