Human brains are awful in dealing with collective pandemic

He strongly believes that in order to survive and thrive in this ‘new abnormal’, one should be mentally prepared to say good-bye to old ways of living, and move on to the new path drastically. He believes in focusing on adapting and planning for a future shaped by the ‘impact and repercussions of the pandemic’.
Tsipursky wants to be remembered as warrior in history books.
‘’When historians look back to our time, they will rate the winners by how quickly they pivoted, and the losers by how long they dawdled.”
