    Yeah, scientists have been warning about that for a long time. You can find these on google if you want. They’ve always been ignored with the usual “but there is money to be made” argument. And when the infected excrement really hits the rotary air displacement device it’ll be “why did nobody stop us” and “how could we have known”.

    Soon, no more meat because diseases. Forced veganism for everybody.

      Netflix had a Docuseries called “Pandemic” in 2019 that showed how virologists and immunologists worked to locate the next pandemic, and most of them agreed that a new pandemic strain of an influenza-type virus was almost inevitable due to zoonotic transmission and factory farming. Almost poetic.
