    The lesson this pandemics will teach humanity:

    - the education system is out of date
    - in 90% of the cases, in-person meetings can be avoided
    - most of the office work can be done from anywhere
    - about a third of people do the work we can do without
    - important decisions for the society (finance and economy) are made by non-experts out of fear
    - when scientists speak, we would rather listen to them
