These days of Covid are
finding many people seeking the "magic cure". Throughout
history, people have sought the elixir of immortality and many of
them died in the process of consuming that which killed them,
instead. "Cures" have been found as far back as from 202 BC to 8
AD.
Just as we have no magic cure now, we did not have
one in the past. As our "quest for the "nectar of the Gods" goes
on, we are doomed to a more pragmatic cure. Those hoping for a
90 day solution to the current problem are as misguided as our
ancestors, but the beauty of human nature is that we keep
trying. Thankfully people like Jonas Salk and others come along
often enough to keep our faith. It will happen again, but we
must do our part - and keep the faith.
