This disease may run its course or we may find a cure, but modern man is really ripe for a pandemic with horrific die off. We have kept ourselves generally free from wholesale death by nasty diseases for so long now, that we are ripe to see an unstoppable disease simply decimate earth’s population. Decimate may be too mild a word, meaning one in ten. We can probably look forward to a future pandemic killing a third to a half of the earth’s population.
The people who think we are overpopulated should be pleased.
We’re nearing the end of effective antibiotics. Not good.
until they get the itchy rashes and strange sniffles....
