As diagnosed cases surged to a new record of more than 50K on July 1, it appears that Republican politicians have generally flipped to strongly supporting the wearing of masks. In a FOX interview today, enen the President gave a lukewarm endorsement of mask wearing and even claimed that he has been seen wearing a mask.

Despite the doom and gloom of the moment, I got some renewed inspiration by rereading this mid-May NY Times article about the triumph of science over politics in Taiwan.
