I also find it disappointing that people still think that blindly applying measures that may work in one case, will work in any other case. It's like countries don't have different cultures, different climate, geography, demography, political systems and so on. And people still think that taking one set of rules that work in one context we can just apply them anywhere and have the same result.

I heard this quote on a podcast recently, and somehow stuck with me, because it's quite amazing how we think that we can control somehow such a force of nature like a new virus: “Man cannot control the current of events. He can only float with them and steer.” Otto Von Bismarck.

Where was that suggested?
