It’s not just Corona: This map shows the World’s many, many new and re-emerging diseases

In case you haven’t heard, there’s a newly emerged disease going around under the name Covid-19.

While much of the world’s attention is currently placed squarely on this new pathogenic threat, it isn’t the only disease that’s emerging (or re-emerging) and looming over the fate of humanity.

In a bid to highlight these risks, the US National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) has produced a map that shows the newly emerging diseases and re-emerging diseases that the world is currently facing, and where.

The map shows some well known old enemies that are currently resurging in some parts of the world, such as cholera, measles, typhoid fever, Ebola, and diphtheria, and a number of newly emerging, often lesser-known, threats like Akhmeta virus, Hendra virus, Bourbon virus, and a range of new influenza strains.

Not diseases. Opportunities.

Is cronyism undermining the interests of actual demannd for treatment of illnesses?

Is there far too much international interest purely in money than in local communities and their health.

Is there a list of the cities these are in?

All the fear that’s fit to print. Geeze, bring on the giant comet of earthly destruction already.

Or we can just go on with our lives. How about that idea?

Unfettered immigration is seeding all kinds of diseases around the world. But, hey, such a small price to pay for the benefits and blessings of multiculturalism.

There’s a 76 page PDF below written by non other than Anthony Fauci regarding this.

A poster upthread asks a very relevant question about why these are all of a sudden emerging.

I've got a brilliant idea. Let's all cower in our homes wearing masks during Summer so that we don't build up any immunity from all the other germs that we normally do.

Flu season is going to be a real blast next year.

I’m wondering if maybe it’s not these diseases “suddenly emerging”, but instead “suddenly being publicized”.

Yes, I’m skeptical. I believe that nothing is done without a reason.

In the [very] old days, military basic training included a course (or courses) in recognition of — and resistance to — propaganda. How I long for those days.

Another gift from Dr. Fauci. Pretty sure we should not ever leave our homes for much of anything. Keep everyone masked and work from home. No school, no life, just do what Fauci says. Otherwise, you might die!

I am actually wondering how long it will take for those who’ve been staying hidden in their homes to succumb to something, either SARS-CoV-2 or something else.

Does anyone know how long immunity to normal pathogens last if you don’t ever go outside your home? Surely it must be more than a few months.

What a load of alarmist propaganda. Look up the data on these virus. Example...Heartland virus, brought on by a tick. Tick's have been around forever so its not a "newly emerging" disease. Heartland virus was first discovered in 2009.

Cryptosporidiosis, also listed as "newly emerging" has been know since 1976. It is one of the most common waterborne diseases and is found worldwide.

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

The false positive rate was 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's or one old fart’s life, it's worth it.

Viruses/’bugs’ mutate VERY rapidly. ‘Bugs’, good and bad, have been battling since Adam and Eve first sinned. It is, and always has been, a microbial ‘arms race’ as good and bad ‘bugs’ battle. As science has developed treatments, cures and vaccines, the ‘bugs’ have evolved, sometimes with the help of governments (Soviet work on smallpox that is immune to treatment) seeking to weaponizing disease. Only upon Christ’s return, will the Earth be healed.

As my grandmother would say :" Hell's bells "..
No social life, no one knows whether or not you're ill, or not ?
You might just a well be dead !

Some of those diseases never left. They’ve been here all this time, but someone wants to upset the gentlemen at their breakfasts. So they made up this map. Good one, too. Few diseases can be stopped by masks.

Wash your hands! Don’t touch your face! </soap box
