Didn’t they used to call that mad cow disease? I guess they didn’t want to upset people more than they had to.

The prion protein molecules that cause Mad Cow Disease can even survive nuclear irradiation.

Great. My brother is going into that hospital for surgery this month. But it is for his heart, not his brain.

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.

So far the false positive rate is 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...

NOTE!!! I have lost my hard drive, if you joined this list after 7/10/13 please remind me to get back on. All changes after then have gone away. *sigh*
