From Jim Geraghty: In the
coronavirus, our country is facing a kind of threat that it has not faced in a
long time. This virus is very bad news, the potential for overloaded hospitals

From Dr. Albert Mohler: …we are
looking at the most massive challenge that human beings singularly and

sociological, even theological dimensions of what we are facing right now, it
appears that the coronavirus crisis is going to be a far larger world
experience even than the Spanish Flu at the end of World War One (Briefing).
