An unknown illness kills over 50 people in part of Congo with hours between symptoms and death

Say everybody have you seen my balls? They're big and salty and brown. If you ever need a quick, pick-me-up, just stick my balls in your mouth -
Absolutely!
Another example is HIV: Initial infection is just a minor flu, you're then infectious and active for 5-10 years before becoming seriously ill with AIDS (of course this is for untreated HIV). This allowed the illness to spread for decades adapting to humans before finally being identified in the 80s, killing millions.

Sadly, that makes this unlikely to go pandemic. If it kills too fast it can't spread.
We'll have to live a little while longer...

"Why do we send all these people food"
So they don't have to eat fucking bats with covid-9000
-
is it a matter of access to foods and resources
This is generally why people eat certain things, yes.

God damn it

WHO, governments, responsible media lost the war about representing and reacting to the pandemic right in most places and there weren't much pushback against misinformation.
Salting the wound: after antivaxxing became a part of people's identity, got coupled with their political views, the critical mortality rate to sober up the majority only grew higher.

Because of the diseases right?
-
This is why we had programs like USAID. To keep people from starving and eating infected animals harboring endemic viruses we know nothing about.
Even in the US, it's highly inadvisable to eat animals/bush meat infected with CWD even if it technically can't infect humans ...yet.
-
Bird flu could be that. By some estimates it has had a 51% mortality rate. But if it's all the same to you, I'd still rather not.

I'm struggling to think of a single component of a hot dog or sausage that isn't "normal" to eat everywhere in the world except for reasons of religion and even then it depends on what meat was used to make it.

This guy has definitely played 'Pandemic' the flash game

It's hard to explain international politics. This was a great example of doing it right.

Until some poor sap examining the body gets a tear in his PPE and he gets the mutated version that turns him into a zombie

Sweet name for a Nu Metal band

Don't tell me what to do, you're not my parental figure

Yeah those 48 hours don’t look too fun either though.
Feel awful for those affected.

Why don’t you both have a nice day?
