Cancel a corona virus conference because...corona virus?Bring Out Your Dead
but but but but but "it's just the flu, bro!"
The irony is ironic...
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...
If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.
[ Coronavirus conference is canceled due to... Coronavirus ]
Well...O.K.
Oooooh, Council on Foreign Relations. I guess the New World Order Council, oops, the CFR will have to reschedule.
