"Well - the relevant part of it... is that the virus itself was making things worse for weeks. For months. But the world I came from is kind of like the one we just left, just not as advanced: most people kind of never expected that anything too bad would happen. Most people didn't think there was much that could completely disrupt their way of life. And when we hit that tipping point, it went fast."
