I feel like maybe we shouldn't make a habit of making viruses after chaos gods lol.

I'm also endlessly entertained by the "here are the symptoms" every time they report a new variant. Cold symptoms. The symptoms are cold symptoms. You can't distinguish one viral respiratory infection from another based on symptoms.
