How to Conduct Business in a New World

Make no mistake about it, the decisions we have made to shut down our normal life as we know it will have long lasting negative consequences on everyone.  As a matter of fact, even those businesses that have been deemed “essential” will have to adjust to the new normal.  Those who currently have jobs and are taking to the internet shaming others who are questioning the plethora of misinformation that continues to flow will end up feeling the same pain as the business owner who has had to shut their doors due to being “non-essential”.  It’s just a matter of time the longer our government leaders make decision on false logic.

Today, more users/consumers are viewing the internet to get the majority of their information.  No matter which side of the fence you are on in any issue; one will be able to find information to support their position.  This is important for businesses now more than ever.  They must have a digital media strategy that includes a well-built website, optimized social media channels directing viewers back to the website, daily post on the social media channels, videos promoting their message, blogs written to highlight their products or services, a positive online reputation and social media engagement from their customers or fans.  Having the right digital media strategy will be vital for businesses to operate in our current climate and will be a must to survive the aftermath of these grave decisions that have been made.

Take for example the latest reports on how everyone who is promoting the shutdown of our economic livelihood is pointing to Italy’s high rate of death from the Coronavirus.  This group of medical professionals and politicians routinely leave out that Italy has a relatively high proportion of older people, a different definition of coronavirus-related deaths, and approach to testing strategies.  The doctors noted that a report from the World Health Organization-China Joint Mission on Coronavirus Disease 2019 Mortality on 2,114 of 55,924 coronavirus-related deaths in China reported a death rate of 21.9% in people 80 years and older (compared with 20.2% in this age-group in Italy).  Italy also overestimated COVID-19–related deaths because of the different way its officials define it, classifying the death of anyone who tested positive for the disease as related to the coronavirus, regardless of whether they had underlying illnesses that could have independently led to death.  The sector of the population will share the message of the mortality rate of the virus in Italy in order to scare the opposition, but will not identify the actual reasoning behind why Italy is abnormal in all of the charts and graphs that do not fit their narrative.  If this were not true, these same “leaders” would also show contrasting points of views in places like Ivory Coast, Senegal, Dominican Republic, Singapore, Peru, Argentina, Mexico, India, South Africa, Saudi Arabia, Thailand, Philippines, Japan, Chile, Malaysia, Australia, Israel, Brazil, Canada, South Korea and others.

Obviously, numbers continue to change.  The Epidemiologist behind the highly-cited Coronavirus Model who stated there would be 2.2 million deaths in the United States (that would be 6027 deaths a day) drastically downgraded his projection to less than 50,000 people in the US (61,000 people died from the flu during 2017-2018).  Nobody has contradicted that the coronavirus is a virus which is serious.  However, the numbers do not support the rhetoric that is continuing to be spewed and affecting businesses.

 When the loss of jobs and no income begin to trickle into the medical community from shutting the doors on the means to earn an income and wage only then will that sect of our society understand the fiat consequences of only looking at this problem from a physician’s point of view.  Our police force will also have this same thought when crime begins to increase and the ability to receive funds from tax dollars that provides resources on combat crime decreases.  The saying goes “an ounce of prevention, is worth a pound of cure” should resonate with everyone today, but if you are not thinking about the long-term; it will eventually enter your way of life.  As with any disease or illness there is always a case that doesn’t follow the norm.  We must find a balanced approach to find a solution that we all can find beneficial.

Everyone know based on trends throughout the world, including Italy which arguments show is not the norm, that 80% of the infected with the coronavirus have mild to no symptoms. Mild meaning there is no need to go to the hospital for treatment.  The other 20% is the cause for concern. These are the individuals who will require medical care to survive. In the history of the world there has never been any illness that has affect 100% of the population in any given scenario. It appears that is exactly what the masses have been scared into assuming in order to achieve the magnitude of this virus. That is an unfair and biased approach.

At the end of all the shelter in place time lines, what happens and how do we a society begin the process of moving the pendulum back to “normal”?  How do we find a balanced approach to a solution that the fewest people are affected? Both physically and financially? At the end of the day research is funded with money, and we need money to continue to treat people. Sitting at home doing nothing for months will not find answers to the problem.

The American People will remain divided on all of the issues discussed.  Today, social media has given everyone a platform to share their opinion.  Whether you make a comment, post a picture/video, LIKE, Share, retweet or put some type of emoji on a post you are sharing your opinion.  Because we feel safe behind a keyboard or our face buried in our phones; we feel empowered that others truly value what we have to say.  Google Reviews, Yelp and Facebook have all made millions on this concept as the consumer will instantly take to giving their Online Review.
