The U.S. government is lying about cases in the United States. Once the annual tradition of worshipping the sports ball begins and citizens begin to make their pilgrimage to their sacred temples and places of worship, we will see unprecedented cases of Fish Flu spread like butter across the Midwest and South.

We are seriously hosed. This is going to be like the Black Plague.

I trust that this will be an apocalyptic pandemic based on CSPAM's record of being right on Hillary 2016, Elob Musk, the economy, war in Iran, Catalan Independence, war b/w India and Pakistan and idk like anything else

I keep thinking about that 2 week incubation period while looking at this gif.



First-degree cases all over China began exploding right about 2 weeks after the original reported cases. About a week or so now is when we should start seeing second-degree cases becoming symptomatic across the world.

That gif is also slightly out of date given we have reports from Canada, Spain, and Russia today.

yeah for the record I don't think this will lead to Black Death, 97% of us will be just fine. I'm just having fun with it, because, like, A R0 OF FIVE POINT FORTY SEVEN HOLY LMAO

Also this has the chance to trigger the economic crash we've been posting about for years in the Doomsday Economics thread. China basically shutting down for an entire month is going to have loads of knock-on effects lol and might finally lead to all the other precarious structures crumbling down. Or it might not!

• Airborne
  
• Object-persistent for 24 hours
  
• 14 day incubation period
  
• Infectious during incubation
  
• Early symptoms are mild and extremely easily mistaken for a weak cold or flu
  

All this is missing is one single mutation to make it deadly, like encephalitis or something idk lmao

I'm actually sincerely starting to wonder, in a non-joking way unlike last night, whether this is actually an escaped bioweapon. How do you make something more perfect than this? All you'd need to do is just release this and let nature do the rest of the work to mutate it, and, uhh...
