    If it goes human to human it’s not just the US that’s going to be wiped out. We will choose death and treats over inconvenience every time from here on out.

        Yeah, I don’t know enough about H1N-whatever we’re up to, to know how long people are infectious before they die, but basically shit goes transnational within the span of a plane flight. It could be everywhere before 90% of the world is even aware that it’s happening.

        The banning of observation and reporting in the US means like, yeah, we’re all fucked. Monitoring and combating these diseases requires global cooperation and we’re obviously not going to be seeing that any time soon.

        I mean I agree, but that’s sort of aftermath scenario stuff. I’m thinking more about how C19 spread through passenger flights and cruise ships before anyone was really taking it seriously outside of 4chan where it was being overhyped the other way.

        If nearly every other person died, there wouldn’t be too many reckless egotistical deniers left to maintain the foolishness.
