Britain's effort first ramped up SARS pandemic, continued through H1N1 right into the Cygnus exercize as a rehearsal preparation for a pandemic right into 2016, and lost interest after 2016 with the Brexit struggles in the country. By 2019 both countries were woefully short, China's underreporting, the lack of transparency, added to lack of enough awareness of danger in cruc1al weeks of January and February 2020.

We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
