A problem we are having is that this crisis is being politicized by some. It should not be science vs politics. If anything, it should be science vs science. If there's any good news in this crisis, it's that the longer it goes on, it's looking more and more likely there will be a change in national direction in a few months. Then, science will dominate, giving us a chance to get a handle on this. This issue preoccupies newspapers around the country, as well as network and cable news. It's not going away, burning out, etc.no matter how hard some try to make it so and want it so. And attempts to pretend as such, will boom-a-rang on those pretenders in November.
