Patience is one of the key elements for success.” (Bill Gates)

Patience is one of the key elements for success.” (Bill Gates) We all need people who can give us “the feeling of success or failure” of any action taken, (return of information about the result of a job done) whether it is in “political practice” or in any other activity of citizens, because only then can we improve. But don't give us the story that any “vaccination rules will do”. No, they don't. That is why it is essential that everyone respect the criteria that have been defined, certainly in accordance with the best international practices on how to face this pandemic. It sounds like cheap politics to the tone of hysteria with which some politicians, and especially in TVS, because we all know that there is a pandemic caused by SARS-CoV-2, but we also know that there is a difference between information, speculation and spectacle. We criticize the manifest political agenda, legitimate - but never assumed - on private channels but, absolutely, unacceptable on public television. We are indeed, as someone said, “a bizarre country”. “Try once, twice, three times and if possible try the fourth, fifth and as many times as necessary. Just don't give up in the first few attempts, persistence is a friend of conquest. If you want to get to where most people don't, do what most people don't. ”(Bill Gates). There are many reasons for indignation whenever the previously set rules are changed or altered, although it should not be surprising to anyone that certain decisions related to the Covid-19 pandemic have to be reviewed regularly, since knowledge is always unfinished work. We must be convinced that no one wants to overtake anyone and, understanding that we are all anxious to get our vaccine turn, we must wait. It is like when we take the bus, or to the supermarket: sometimes it is boring to have to wait for the people in front of us, but nobody has the right to overtake others and we have to respect each other. “It is in times of crisis that we realize that the greatest enemy of democracy and knowledge is not uncertainty, it is a lie, because the lie is always assertive and categorical, never doubts, because it is based on ignorance, it is easy, it is simplistic and explores the fragility of the other ”(Alexandre Quintanilha- full professor) As citizens who exercise their citizenship rights and duties, we must have a clear perception that when challenges are complex and require responses from several domains simultaneously, as is the case with the pandemic, the work becomes gigantic, and that a A lie hides powerful economic, political and ideological interests and, for this reason, it is widely financed, even at the international level, and the “certainties”, which generate uncertainty and insecurity, are easier to be transmitted on social networks and the media. because they take up less space and require less explanation, as it must be clear to everyone to repeat the same lie many times over and because insecurity and fear are easy to sell. Perhaps that is why we need to be patient, in essence, to have the ability not to lose our cool, maintaining the balance of emotional control in these times, and also to have the ability to tolerate errors or unwanted facts, in addition to enduring difficulties and annoyances of all kinds. The ability to persist, calmly, believing that we will get what we want, to listen to other people carefully, unhurriedly and calmly, trying to understand the vision they want to convey to us, and thus being able to get rid of anxiety. “We can live in a house more or less, on a street more or less, in a city more or less, and even have a government more or less. We can sleep in a bed more or less, eat more or less, have more or less transportation, and even be forced to believe more or less in the future. We can look around and feel that everything is more or less ....... What we cannot really ... ..is dreaming more or less, loving and being loved, more or less, being and having friends more or less , have more or less faith, and believe more or less. Because if so, we run the risk of becoming a more or less person. ”(Chico Xavier)
