re: Oh no, here we go, Covid 2.0 - Chikungunya virus sweeps through China

Chikingunya has been around a very long time
Akin to Dengue Fever
IF/WHEN it shows up in the US, in small numbers, mosquito abatement should ramp up as use of spray.. i.e., nothing like covid at all

I would be interested to see what people do for the next mass health issue like COVID. Most people have come to the realization that it was blown out of proportion and ended up being a massive power grab, so I think you'll see a lot more pushback on the next one.
Libtards will still act like libtards. Those sheep will do whatever they are told.

1. It will never sell with that name. The fewer syllables the better when you're trying to get things going with Westerners.
2. This sounds a whole lot like Dengue Fever. It is even spread by the same mosquito species.

The good thing about China is there’s billions of them so if 10,000 or so die, it won’t make any difference.

Well known reasons that will get you called all kind of names.
The truth is Chinese peasants still live in incredible proximity-- and sometimes shared accommodation with pigs. That wouldn't be such an issue, if the human-pig genetic distance was greater. We often pick up pig diseases. The problem there, though, is that they serve as a bridge to bird diseases, which are picked up by swine, and the diseases of the prey of birds, which are often acquired and carried by birds.
It creates a chain of genetic cross jumping that leads to an amalgam of nasty species hopping that happens in rural China like nowhere else in the world-- it is why when they are developing emergent flu strain vaccines, they study specific regions and populations of Chinese peasants and pigs.

That pull down face shield and floppy hat is certainly preventing the poor guy running the fogger from breathing any of that crap he is spraying.

Take a trip to Chinur and you would quickly understand "why". I have traveled to several countries and China by far was the nastiest. That added to they will eat anything that walks, crawls, flies or swims.

They have that shite in Central America. Not sure how many people it kills but it will make you wish you were dead. Or so I’m told.

Covid never would have happened if some dumbass didn't post a thread here telling us people were dropping dead in the streets of wuhan.
