EDITOR’S NOTE: This may be the first time ever that this publication has been in agreement with Bill Maher. Suffice to say, we live in hope.
In his editorial “New Rule,” Real Time host Bill Maher argues that people should fight the coronavirus by strengthening their immune systems, rather than by sanitizing the universe.
He explains, “I worry that the past two months of quarantine have given people the idea that the way for humans to win our million year war with microbes is to avoid them completely. And I’m here to tell you you can’t. The key to beating COVID isn’t dining through glass or never going to a concert or a ballgame again. It’s your immune system. You hear people say ‘COVID-19 is a new virus so the immune system doesn’t know how to handle it.’ Of course it does, that’s why the vast majority of people have had it either recovered or didn’t even know they had it.”
Watch Maher deliver a most timely address to an America overcome with hypochondria:
