The damage done by government panic and over-reach, public-private partnerships prioritizing profit over health, downplaying side effects and crushing questions and dissent. Governments ceding individual freedoms so readily and broadcasting part truth non-sense to the public in hourly fear broadcasts sets up society for failure when an actual serious pandemic arises. The boy who cried wolf.

The beauty of a human world with instant global communication is that like Sweden people can tailor their personal response to their personal risk profile and society will power on as normal. Give people accurate information and they will manage. Animals can be culled and burnt and outbreaks quashed, if its a serious threat to humans it will be all over social media and people will work things out quickly to manage their risk to minimise their personal exposure and avoid death.
