Wow. There’s a mental image that’s hard to unthink! Imagine some nutball infected with any disease blowing himself up in a crowd with the intent of infecting everyone. That is pretty horrific.
Oh yeah. Why not? Those maniacs are capable of anything and everything destructive and deadly.
I’ve got a worse scenario for you to ponder.
One person decides they are willing to be infected and travel to the US. A small group here, say 6 to 10 people, are told that they will be vaccinated against ebola but only saline is administered.
When the infected person arrives, dont get them treated. Rather the small cell decides to keep that person in isolation until they are really sick or dead. Use that first person to extract fluids.
Then split up that small cell of 6 to 10 people and send them to major cities. Have them spread the fluids on door handles of bathroom, subways, spray the fluids on ATMs, or spray them over food buffets. Each day spend 10 to 12 hours leaving infections. Next day, move to a different city. By the end of the first week, you will have “hit” as many as 50 to 60 cities.
At the end of a week, thousands will have been infected. By the end of the second week, the original cell will be starting to show signs and likely be hospitalized and hundreds of thousands will likely to be infected. By the third week, the originals will be dead, and the first set of thousands will be overwhelming their local hospitals and doctors offices.
Very possible and very scary.
