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...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Once again, another country starting the ban at a future date.

NZ must pinky swear to self isolate. That would be after they wander around the airport sneezing on everyone and using the public restrooms. And after they catch a cab or bus home. Or if their home isn’t in the city, they’ll catch another bus or train or fly across country coughing on the current passengers. When they do get home, they’ll be using the family restroom and having mama do their laundry and they’ll need to get 15 things from the other rooms in the house and then there’s their dirty dishes and they’re bored so need a tv and remote and an xbox, and etc., etc., etc.

“NZ Announces China Ban Amid Virus Fears”

Isn’t this racist? Most Chinese are not infected. This is so unfair to people of color.

Oh wait, not Trump.
