I'm really struggling to comprehend the idea that an entire influenza strain was made extinct from one half rear end effort at universal masking by the world over ~6 months

Asproigerosis posted:I'm really struggling to comprehend the idea that an entire influenza strain was made extinct from one half rear end effort at universal masking by the world over ~6 months The evolutionary behavior of influenza is extremely bizarre and poorly understood. There's still not a really good understanding of the 1918 pandemic as far as how it came out of nowhere, killed so many people for a few years, then seems to have basically gone away completely. It's little wonder the yearly vaccine formulation is as hit or miss as it is.

I wonder if it's genuinely extinct or if our PCR surveillance of flu is too sparse to pick it up. Or if it's in whitetail deer now

I read that post as a play on the blink 182 song title, and in context, the punchline of the joke was that the unborn child of some celebs who kissed while being covid positive at their baby shower might be disabled. If I missed a different meaning then my bad. If that was the correct reading then I guess we can just agree to disagree if that was worth a sixer or not.

If that was the correct reading then I guess we can just agree to disagree if that was worth a sixer or not. let’s imagine you read that perfectly correctly. some people purposefully spread a fatal disease by kissing. do you think shaming people who purposefully spread disease is wrong? do you think it’s your job to silence them so that popular culture says it’s okay to knowingly spread disease? what was your goal with that probe?

I don't think that anyone going up to a baby shower while knowingly covid positive is great, and I also don't think joking about their unborn child being disabled is good to post because you're upset by that behavior. I'd recommend to do less of that.

The joke is not “haha that baby is gonna suffer” but rather “haha these people are pieces of poo poo,” but mostly just lol at coming into the thread to litigate a bullshit sixer.

No, I just thought it was just a lovely thing to post for the reasons I mentioned and it earned a six hour probation. I wouldn't recommend joking that random covid positive celebrities disabled their unborn children based on random article tweets, even if it's a very funny joke about the song title from one of the people involved.
