Like how stupid. Hey yeah great timing with the H5N1 Avian strain already showing human to human transmission, after two nurse contracted it from their patient, who was silly enough to consume raw ducks blood......I can see it's just a matter of time before it starts all mutating together in a viral hochpotch of death.

Yes I can say idiot. Not as often as I'd like though.... Always find it has more emphasis if you pre-fix with "you f....." has more of a dramatic impact.

Yes, I like it however, it uses more resources than I'm willing to assign to someone who deserves such an outburst!

Gotta be s***ing me....

I tell ya, the UN and it's organizations are getting more idiotic daily.

It's only a matter of time before something emerges that we don't have the understanding and technology to deal with... This is one thing I wouldn't mind outsourcing to India....

If youve been to India, then you would see, they have it all, every possible kind of disease and virus, and they have quite good local remedies to fix it.

The problem of poverty though, keeps the diseases around.

I remember reading, several years ago, a paper from a scientist in which he described observing germ organisms (from different strains) joining with foreign germs, and exchanging "data". The reason he knew there was an exchange of data was that resistance characteristics of the first germ showed up in the second germ, after the exchange, and vice/versa. The same type of behavior or mechanism is present in viri, that is why they constantly change.

An incident that happened years ago shows the extent of how far humans are willing to go themselves, the corpses of people who had died from the flu pandemic of 1919/1920 were dug up from the permafrost of Alaska, the viri cultivated after removal from the bodies, put into aerosol form, and released in selected American cities, as a test for both viability and dispersion methods. I don't think it was very successful, but wow the logic!

Some really bad things begin with someone saying "Watch this!".

Have a good day!!
