    Okay when I heard "history repeats itself" I was really hoping we were mostly talking about shit that happened way back when, not 4 fucking years ago. This is embarrassingly soon for another pandemic. Especially considering the first one never fucking ended.

    Ew, those gross Americans are gonna get us all diseased because they just had to get cheap meat from a wet cow market? What a backwards trash country.

    And that's how it sounded when Americans blamed China for COVID

    Except this time it will be kinda correct

      What's crazy is that genomic testing showed that the variant found in China was newer than the one found in the US and Europe

        Just like the Spanish Flu is so called because Spain actually took measures against, COVID’s association with China is because they took action sooner than anyone else.

    Makes sense, people were getting bored of the current plague so Nurgle had to whip up another one. Keep people on their toes.

      While this is absolutely true and I don't wanna sound at all like I'm downplaying things, does anyone have information on why we haven't seen any deaths yet despite the high fatality rate?

      angry-place Look, Rom, Rom...I know you're a sophisticated guy. The world is a mess. The world is as sick as it gets. What you think this gonna cause a little more sickness? The world is a sick place. All of this has happened: we went into lockdown- we shouldn't have gone into lockdown.

    Only this time Trump absolutely will not do lockdowns or mask mandates or stimulus checks because his hoglets love death and misery and being owned.

      trump-anguish Folks, it’s happening again. Another virus, another panic. Bird flu. Can you believe this? They’re calling it an emergency in California - of course it’s California. Gavin Newscum, doing a terrible job, by the way. He loves emergencies. But this isn’t COVID, okay? This is different. This is the woke virus. Not the mind virus, folks, but from a bird! A woke bird flu. That’s what we’re dealing with. A bird got very woke, and now it’s flu. Disgusting.
