    On Trump’s mind, as long as no one reports it then it doesn’t really exist. Remember when he said that we need to do testing for COVID to make the numbers go down? Same thing.

      Everyone I know who was anti-vax first started with the position that covid was fake. They all look at avian flu as just yet another “attack for pure inconvenience” without any giant profit motive.

    I’m not worried about a new pandemic. Trumpy Dumpy, Muskie, and Mr. Brain Worms will get us though it; plus or minus a few million dead people.

    Idea:

    Stop eating (that much) animal products!!

    If you eat the fleshoft a cow that died out of olf age after her natural death…or eat few eggs (chicken period) then that’s all fine.

    Nobody is hurt, no one lives in a cage oft their own body size full of excrements increasing the probability of diseases

    and the current administration has shuttered the CDC and the NIH, and has withdrawn us from the WHO.

    Just in time for the hero to save the day with the ol’ UV lung-bleach-brush combo move and horse dewormer aperitif.

    Oh, fantastic. The pandemic-industrial complex is back on the menu. We’ve spent decades industrializing agriculture into viral petri dishes, then act shocked when nature mutates around our hubris. Cows are just the latest domino—watch the blame shift to “wet markets” or migratory birds while factory farms keep hosing antibiotics into troughs.

    But sure, let’s hyperventilate about proximity to doom. Never mind that zoonotic spillover’s been a ticking clock since we decided monoculture and profit margins trump ecosystem logic. The real virus here? Capitalism with a side of amnesia.
