And shoot down every bird that tries to leave Asia?

Too far to fly, some hitch a ride on cargo vessels so yes, if 150 million peopel might die then stopping birds is a minimum you need to do. Also stopping all imports of birds as pets should stop.

It isn't one bird. A bird may only carry it 10 miles and then infect another bird.
You are living in a dream world if you think we can stop them all. We either develop and produce a vaccine or get a pandemic.

Actually, the world has way more than 150 million people to spare.

In fact, the US has more than 150 million people to spare.

Actually, this could be a good thing.

What if one of the disposable human beings were someone you loved and cared about ... would it still be a good thing?

Spare people? Real classy.

You do realize that 150 million people is about half our population?

Except if it is you or your family. At any rate, St. Jude scientist says he can produce vaccine very fast when it is identified. But getting it massed produced would be the challenge.

How can this be "a good thing?"
