INFORMED D E C I S I O N S™

January 2022 Dear friends, The past year will be remembered for many things, but perhaps most memorable will be the lack of normalcy in our everyday lives. We face a seriously divided world and country, new macroeconomic challenges, price instability, bigger government, new models of education, and other shifts in daily life. Yale University professor Nicholas Christakis identifies three shifts caused by past pandemics: a growth in state power, a search for meaning, and increased caution because of the closeness of death. Many of these trends resonate nationally and in Utah. The U.S. fiscal response to the pandemic approaches 25% of GDP (compared to about 7% during the Great Recession and less than 1% during the Dot-com bust). Amenity migration has taken hold as people search for greater meaning in life. And, as the COVID-19 death toll approaches 820,000 in the U.S. and 3,800 in Utah, our own mortality feels closer than ever. Utahns see other important trends – rapid population growth, a shrinking inland sea, a labor shortage, and lower standardized test scores in 5th-8th grade since the start of the pandemic. Like the nation, we too are changing. The past year also brought welcoming news, including increased funding for those in need. The Community Foundation of Utah increased giving to nonprofits nearly threefold from 2020 to 2021. The most recent data shows over 450,000 Utah adults provided unpaid giving services on an annual basis to their family and friends. Nationally, Google searches for how to help others included questions like, “How to help Afghan refugees,”“How to help Texas,” and “How to help foster kids.” These statistics remind us of the value of service born from a generous heart. The Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute serves as an honest broker of informed research, that guides informed discussions, and leads to INFORMED DECISIONS™. In this sixth edition of Utah Informed we document the past and illuminate the future with the hope it will help you make wise decisions in 2022. Thanks for your interest,

Utah Informed: Visual Intellection for 2022

Words and phrases to know in 2022 Amenity migration - The movement of people to perceived desirable regions, usually for non economic reasons, such as a physical or cultural environment that is seen as more beautiful, tranquil, or inspirational than their current, usually urban environment. Utah’s growth could be attributed to an amenity migration but with such a strong economy, families aren’t only moving here for the mountains. Be 22% better – To increase the good qualities of; make better; improve. In honor of University of Utah football players, Aaron Lowe and Ty Jordan, we should all seek to be 22% better. Cryptocurrency – This is a collection of binary data that is designed to be used as means of exchange. Bitcoin was the first widely used cryptocurrency, but since, there have been many different kinds created. Digital wanderer -A person who earns a living working online in various locations of their choosing rather than a fixed business or residential location. Jessie, our CTO and the office’s digital wanderer, is off mountain biking in Moab so this meeting will have to be on Zoom. Endemic - Persisting in a population or region, generally having settled to a relatively constant rate of occurrence. The coronavirus that causes COVID-19 may never disappear, but could become endemic like HIV. Fiscal space – The extra room in a government´s budget that can be used for discretionary purposes without risking its financial position. The state collected $400 million more than expected in sales tax revenue, growing its fiscal space for future fiscal years. Ghosted – Someone has been ghosted when another person abruptly cuts off contact with them without giving that person any warning or explanation for doing so. I was planning on spending Halloween with my girlfriend but she ghosted me and I haven’t heard from her since.

Mutuals – When two people follow and interact regularly with each other on social media are considered mutuals. My mom joined Facebook and we are now mutuals. Non-fungible Token (NFT) – This is a noninterchangeable unit of data that is stored on a digital ledger. Andy will auction off the horror anthology as a non-fungible token, with the owner gaining the rights to exhibit, distribute and stream the movie. Nadir – The lowest point of in the fortunes of a person or organization. He insisted that an international nadir had been reached, and that performances must improve immediately. Omicron – A new variant of SARS-COV-2 first discovered in South Africa. Is Omicron a variant of COVID or a new Utah County startup? Post-COVID conditions – A wide range of new, returning, or ongoing health problems people can experience four or more weeks after first being infected with the virus that cause COVID-19. It has been months but I am still experiencing post-COVID conditions. Short squeeze – A situation in which too many short sellers are trying to buy back the same shares so that their price rises suddenly instead of falling. The stock has been rallying sharply in recent weeks, leading to a flurry of buying, resulting in what some analysts have called a short squeeze. Wuhan tipping point - The pandemic has soured relations between the world’s two great powers. Expect heightened tensions in 2022 regarding Taiwan, the South China Sea, and human rights that are reflective of the Wuhan tipping point. Zoom town - A community that experiences a significant population increase as remote work becomes more popular, especially in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic. The name, "zoomtown", is a play on "boomtown" and the name of the web conferencing tool, Zoom.

COVID-19

Development of vaccines against Corona viruses have significantly improved within the past 10 years. As such, while the development timeline for the COVID-19 vaccine seems fast, the U.S. has been studying mRNA vaccines for much longer (mRNA vaccines have been studied in response to flu, Zika, rabies, and cytomegalovirus, CMV). Vaccine timelines are dependent upon the number of volunteers for clinical trials. Developmental research and clinical research take up a majority of the time for a typical timeline.
