There was a natgeo tv movie mini-series called "the hot zone" (I think) that's worth a watch. Good casting, about the Reston, VA ebola scare a couple of decades ago. Topher Grace, Julianne Marguiles, that guy that was Jim Carrey's friend in the Truman Show. Pretty decent for a tv thing.

If covid mutates then things could get really loving scary.

I'm currently reading the excellent The Great Influenza. It didn't start out as a joke at all. The first significant outbreak (they think) was in an Army camp, Camp Funston, in February 1918. and they had 1100 soldiers sick enough to be on sick call, and more who weren't officially counted as sick. There were only 38 deaths, but it wasn't a joke. Generals were seriously worried about the majority of their troops being too sick to fight. In May in France, at a station of 1018 French army recruits, 688 had to be hospitalized and 49 died. By May the best epidemiologists/medical researchers in the US were worried and doing their best to track data and outbreaks.

Pandemic simulation game Plague Inc. pulled from iOS App Store in China Authorities offer vague statement alleging "content that is illegal in China." https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2020/02/pandemic-simulation-game-plague-inc-pulled-from-ios-app-store-in-china/ Maybe if they included the 9-dash line on the map they can get re-listed.

Coronavirus: Japan to close all schools to halt spread Just got a message from a Japanese schoolteacher friend about this. tl;dr - it's not as drastic as the headline would make you think (it's near the end of the academic year now anyways, so basically they're saying school will be closed the last ~10 days and then also will be closed during spring holidays), the report speculates that the government feels the need to take big, public measures if they want to hold on to the idea of doing the summer Olympics.

I once saw a group of chickens brutally murder a snake. Not a large one, but up until then I'd assumed that wasn't how it went.

Mr. Mittens once caught and ate a roach and then sat meowing at the spot on the wall where he had last seen it hoping more would appear. Then he started begging me to help. He was not the smartest cat.

Soju brings me half dead mice/birds, then meows pitifully for me to come take a look. Two mice have survived the night and been released far away the next day. Mandu (  ) brought me half a cooked sausage. I miss my dumb trash cat.

I would blow Dane Cook posted:Well this aged poorly loving  My friend got a call from a mainland China number last evening. He outright blocked it without answering it. He's in full  mode now, which I think is showing amazing progress.The company he has his RRSP with "somehow" lost" the recorded conversation his wife had with their employee. He's 90% sure they just started the transfer process without following their own security procedures, so there isn't really a way to prove fraud. It was headed towards their joint account, so her plan was to keep withdrawing from it from China, hoping he never shut her out. Also the bank said that there were a few attempts to withdraw funds from the joint account with a "stolen" card from China. (he reported her card for the joint account stolen)
