Londoners killed dogs during the plague in the 1600s — they thought they were the primary hosts for the disease. Too bad, too — many of the dogs were good ratters...
It’s unbelievable that after 400 years, we haven’t advanced our knowledge enough to be able to determine for sure how dogs factor into this plague, or if they do at all.
People just don’t change. Get them scared of something and they go looking for scapegoats. Facts have nothing to do with it.
Bla bla bla, dogs are more important than humans. bla bla bla no we aren’t going to take any preventative actions against the one week doubling number of infected spread of a 50% fatality rate virus, that makes you bleed out your organs through your pores. bla bla bla.
