I don’t have it and that’s pretty good news.

A massive outbreak in Pakistan — would be good news about Ebola.

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...

Anyone who believes that “we’re all supposed to be dead now” doesn’t quite understand the disease process.

Everyone dying means the disease doesn’t continue to spread. Nature favors the disease that spreads over the one that doesn’t.

Thank God.

The news ... is seldom good, and much of the bad news is about disease born of ignorance, superstition and primitive sanitation, news dispatched by a media addicted to tales of unrelieved gloom, certain doom and inevitable disaster.

There are a number of similarities to Baltimore.

The irony is that modern burial customs solve the scourge - like cremation and wrap em in plastic and bury in the ground.

This actually is very good news - now we've got a target protein. That isn't the beginning of the end but it is the end of the beginning.

I am amazed at the people who have become convinced from the MSM that this was just another political issue. From the figures cited in the article, mortality is down from 70% to "only" about 42%. That's still ten more than the Black Death. We'd better take it seriously before it takes us, seriously.
