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.

I keep my hands in my pockets when the pastor says “Say hi to a neighbor.” Of course passing the collection basket is done.

Shared or spread at communion and whe welcoming or saying good bye? This should give everyone pause.

I stated that not as a criticism of you or anyone but a piece of information just in case some didn’t get it. I had to go to the source for the story to find it was Singapore.

You’re welcome. Let’s hope Singapore is able to keep this coronavirus outbreak limited to as few people as possible.

That's why I put "(Singapore") in the title.
