WITHOUT modern medical assistance, bird flu has a greater than 50% mortality rate in humans.

In comparison, COVID was only 12% with its first strain, and has dropped to under 3% with some of its most recent strains. And COVID still had an epic impact on our medical system, bringing many parts of it to the threshold of collapse and causing significant numbers of excess and non-COVID-related deaths.

On the one hand, I don’t want to subject our communities to that kind of a death toll. Especially the innocents, like children.

On the other hand, these alt-right morons really need to experience FAFO and the consequences of their decisions.
