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?

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.

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!

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.

Anthrax bioterrorism?
Just how wide is the timescale compressed into this map???

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.

Let me make myself perfectly clear: WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE! eventually

Look out the window today at 3:17. I got a tip. Can’t tell you who from

Overpopulation may be a factor.
