Don't worry, I'm sure Trump and his cultists will fuck this one up for us too.

I look forward to our next pandemic…
Maybe Trump’s narcissism will work in our favor this time. He’s been impeached twice, among other things. Does he also want to go down in history as the president who exacerbated TWO pandemics?
If we all die from the bird flu can we die after collectively doing the chicken dance?
Doo dee doo dee doo dee doot. Doo dee doo dee doo dee doot. So kiss my butt! 👏👏👏
Ugh, do we really need Trump + Pandemic again?
do we really need Trump + Pandemic again
If there were any justice in the universe, he would have died from the virus he unleashed on the world
It's entirely avoidable, if only Trump would have actually learned something from his first term and actually funded research and prevention teams. Sadly, he only has the foresight to see how cutting those programs saves the US Govt. a penny now, and not the wisdom to see how that panny would have been money well spent if it prevented us from having to spend thousands on recovery efforts.
Trump would have actually learned something
That's physically impossible at this point.
But they made so much money stealing PPE last time! Probably some good extortion money, too.
Huge bonus if they get to hold a cure over people's heads, too.
I don’t wanna get my hopes up so fear-mongering aside, how actually likely is any of this?
Because I keep remembering that humans are notoriously bad at future prediction.
Surely you aren't expecting a calculated probability between 0% and 100%. The most useful thing the scientists can do for us here is to prepare for the worse (while hoping for the best), and that is done by carefully selecting the recommendations they chose to publish (in the article).
Just feel bad for the birds ;( not treated with any kind of decency or respect
I just hope it kills a lot more Nazi antivax idiots this time
Unfortunately, it's the rich that are feeding them the garbage that's infested their minds. I don't think there's any saving the masses from the delusion they're slobbering up, but as long as the buffet keeps getting restocked, the pigs will keep fattening up for the slaughter.
There will probably be some slant in that direction, but there'll be a much bigger slant towards killing the elderly, the immunocompromised, those who can't afford medical care and time off, etc. As usual.

When is this coming ?
The fucknut RFK will tell the AmeriKans to drink fish tank cleaner or bleach and shove a UV light down their throats. When this things slams into the USA, Krasnov will continue to fail.

- the case mortality rate is, by far, one of the worst we've ever seen for an influenza. https://cdn.who.int/media/docs/default-source/wpro---documents/emergency/surveillance/avian-influenza/ai_20250131.pdf
- we already have a vaccine for it https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/H5N1_vaccine
- don't panic but be educated https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5CyVi4UzKxE
Is there is a functional vaccine for it then I want it ASAP.

Scientists: we have some good news and some bad news on the pandemic front.
Public: Gimme the good news first.
Scientists: We're going to solve the housing crisis really quickly.

There could be 1000000 empty houses for every homeless person and capital would still be murdering people who tried to squat.
