mdemone posted:dude a million boomers are gonna die. it's going to dwarf 9/11 as a purely disruptive event. yeah, if we hit those numbers i'd agree on all counts I just remember the world felt like it cracked in half after 9/11 and the hysteria afterwards - i guess this is all i have for reference because i wasn't around for ww2 despite knowing it was totally hosed

Had a relative over this weekend who wouldn't shut up about how "This is like 'The Stand'! We're living it!!" I have it but last read it years ago, so after they left, I took a few hours and re-read most of the first part of the book where the superflu kills everyone. The flu part isn't accurate - the superflu is super transmissible, kills you in 2-4 days, no hope for a vaccine and less than a percent of the world's population is naturally immune. The bug escapes containment on June 12, 19(xx, varies depending on what version you're reading) and it's implied that the non-immune population of the U.S. are mostly dead three weeks later by the Fourth of July. The U.S. government cover-up stuff (nothing to worry about, everything is normal, it's just the flu, a vaccine is coming, etc) is mostly accurate lol. That's probably what they were remembering.

9/11 wasn’t really socially disruptive for people; if you lived in a major city you saw a heavy police presence for a few days and maybe school off for a couple but otherwise that was the most of its direct impact on daily lives. The real changes were to commercial air travel and foreign policy
