Abstract: Abstract During the last four hundred years, different types of pandemics have wreaked havoc on the health, psyche, politics and economies of regions, nations and continents—see Appendix 1 herein and below for a list of global and regional pandemics that occurred during the last few centuries. The grossly inadequate healthcare facilities and total lack of readiness by most governments in the face of COVID-19 indicate significant failures of political, economic and social welfare systems around the world.
