A 59-year-old resident of the State of Mexico [was] hospitalized in Mexico City and had no history of exposure to poultry or other animals.
It’s 202X, election year
Biden vs. Trump
There is a deadly disease rapidly spreading everywhere
Mass riots when?
Probably after everyone gets back from traveling for summer vacation
Oh fuck you got summer break travels and vacationing Europeans…
Whooping cough on the rise, along with measles, and whatever those “seasonal allergies” are that people have had since December…haha…lol. lmao.
the october surprise will be Biden getting bird flu
They both get bird flu and die. RFK rises from the ashes after he got a single delegate and is the default winner
It was the worm’s plan all along.
he’s immune due to a compound in the worm’s saliva
The victim had no history of exposure to poultry or other animals, WHO said.
"What are you alarmists going on about? There is no need to do anything, it only affects birds!
Ok, it affects mammals, but I’m not doing anything because it’s not dangerous to them.
Ok, it’s dangerous to them, but I’m not doing anything because it doesn’t transmit between them.
Ok, it transmits between them, but I’m not doing anything because not to humans.
Ok, to humans, but I’m not doing anything because it’s like a mild cold.
Ok, it’s killing people, but I’m not doing anything because…I don’t care, make me money"
A few days ago I said it’s too early to start worrying about this.
Now it’s time to start worrying.
I still think there’s maybe a 70% chance this just fizzles out, but 30% is plenty of reason to start topping off the pantry.
Aight time to expropriate some N95 boxes from work…
alarm bells

I may be missing a joke here, but in case you’re not making a joke, WHO is correct. The World Health Organization. This announcement is coming from them.
The joke is that they called you Shirley.
Waiting to react until we have a tweet from an epidemiologist telling us how alarmed we should be on an ordinal scale
