First item: Get everyone on board
Well there’s a major problem right there – never going to happen, is it? Right here we’ve got denialists and minimisers, we’ve had “hugs of death” John Goss saying how he likes to embarrass his golf partners (and himself actually, only he’s too silly to realise it) by offering them hand shakes all the time. That’s when he takes a break from advising people to go out and hug someone.
With people like that actually working against moves to get everyone on board – not content to soft-peddle or reluctantly get with the programme, they’re actively trying to sabotage public health efforts – there’s not a chance we’re going to work together.
Bear in mind, these denialists we see here are people who are literate, and capable of forming arguments – albeit in a decidedly dishonest fashion. God help us in convincing the real thickos to do the right thing.
