      Nah. It’s gonna be bird flu.

      Covid shut down the world with a death rate of like 1%.

      Bird flu is 56%.

      Don’t let the sink in. It’s coughing and looks like it’s got Bird flu.

        I think bird flu is deadly enough that people will actually take it seriously, the survival rate of Covid was high enough it was possible you would know multiple people who’ve had it and survived.

          But if it does kick off, it’s going to kick off with absolutely the worst people in charge of managing it coupled with lunatics running podcasts who see everything as a conspiracy or are snakeoil salesman/women with a massive reach.

          It’s going to rival the Black Death if it happens under Trumps administration.

            no it won’t. plenty of infected people probably got under the radar because they thought it’s regular flu. covid initially had much higher fatality too

            Thankfully, I’m nowhere near the USA, and my country has largely competent leaders, so I’ll be watching in horror from the other side of the world.

        And this time people know to get mad and deliberately cough on each other for freedom in advance, instead of just buying TP.

        Por que no los dos?

        Bird flu pandemic + actual hot nuclear´war. This is doinh miracles for my mental health. I always felt as if nothing really ever mattered.

        It doesn’t. We’ll be a tiny stain on an otherwise lifeless rock.

        fortunately the death rate of Bird flu is much lower. look at what’s going on in the US milk industry. there are hundreds of infections amongst workers, very few died.
