Anti-science has gained too much traction in recent years, I doubt USA will survive if H5N1 starts spreading from human to human.
Covid has a mortality rate of about 3% while H5N1 has a mortality rate of about 56%.
If it starts spreading from person to person and it has an r value similar to Covid, we're fucked.
Probably not. If a virus is too deadly, it kills its hosts before it can spread. That's why SARS didn't turn into a pandemic.
It will however fuck all the raw milk people.
hah great, makes the 1 in 50k risk of a certain vaccine's side effects even more ridiculous to think about
At this point, if they're asking for the scientifically specified strain of virus to be served to them, I'm not sure it sounds like "anti science" , more like "braggadocious risk taking"
Honestly a little bit of me is okay with that. I am just so tired of all the shit.
Same. I've been voting for "Giant Meteor" since 2016... It never wins though...
Goddamn old people voting in primaries never gives Giant Meteor a chance!
Have you considered joining the super volcano party? Their policies are really explosive.
The thing is, Giant Meteor policies can be implemented to encourage Super Volcano policies to naturally follow, satisfying both interests with just one party. They did it in the past and I believe they can do it again.
Us Super Volcanoins, remember that, we remember your promises around forming a coalition government. And then you know what you did you took all the credit for it. Everybody remembers last time the giant meteor party won and everything they did. Yet somehow they can never remember how the super volcano party helped you all out. We're not about to form a coalition government, not again.
