Remember when Resistant Tuberculosis was the fear porn flavor of choice? Did it just evaporate into the aether?

"I think we have a distorted perception of risk now." -- Dr. Marty Makary, Johns Hopkins University Professor of Public Health.

Dr. Makary, we've been in a highly distorted perception of risk for about a year now. Remember when bodies were going to be staked like cordwood in the streets? Now we hear masks are no good, fomite transmission is so low it really doesn't matter, etc.

We've seen this disease pattern before:

It was pure hubris to think we could prevent the transmission of the disease and it was ridiculous to suggest the new Black Death was upon us.

Are trying to live up to your moniker?
Or you just lost your mind?

Born on the wings of murder hornets, no doubt.

CDC Director Rochelle Walenksy changed her mind Tuesday about what she predicted weeks ago of there being “impending doom” of coronavirus cases going up ....

"Oh, sorry, my bad!"

It was obvious sarcasm, methinks. Speaking of monikers, what have you been smoking, Joe? ;-)

In all of 2019 there were 8,916 cases of TB.

Yesterday there were over 52,000 new cases of Coronavirus. That’s one day.

This author is an idiot.

But it brings something to mind...

TB has been cropping up in publik skrewls for years.

Wonder why teachers unions never have a cow about TB...?

Biden isn’t a role model for anything.

He is an idiot and everybody knows it.

>> This author is an idiot

The author is quoting Makary.

And, “today, we’re about 1/3 the daily cases of seasonal flu during a mild flu season”

Given your emphasis on the perceived threat, would you rather have TB or SARS?

“Yesterday there were over 52,000 new cases of Coronavirus.”

Only if you believe the made up propaganda numbers.

When we were young, Mom worked in Home Health.
And she took us to a patients house and told us to stay outside while she checked on the patient.
We found a well at the end of the front porch.
Cranked it up.
And there was a bucket and ladel.
We helped ourselves to some water.

When Mom found out she had a fit. The patient had TB.
Fortunately, we didn’t get it.

And masks help stop the spread of TB.

Another reason to wear them.

Would you rather have an arrow shot through your chest or your head bashed with a mace?

What kind of question is that? I choose neither.
