Oh great! Now they’ve opened the mummy and released that ancient strain of Hep B on an unknowing populace with no natural immunity to it.

It’s just like [ insert name of bad science fiction movie here ] all over again!

Absolutely fascinating. But I wonder why the article doesn’t mention whether the child was a boy or girl.

I hope I hold in my last fart until some knucklehead digs me up in 500 years.
