God help them.
“And we have 4000 soldiers in the belly of this beast.
God help them.”
I agree...and us, too, when they return. This is an unholy phuck-up of Biblical proportions. We have no controls over immigration, thus allowing this horrible and incredibly lethal disease to get a foothold on a new continent that has tens of thousands of travelers moving in- and out-bound every day. Only the Hadj in a month or so will be worse for the spread of this disease.
I’ve beeN watching re-runs of The Walking Dead this week. Monday they had the episode from Season 1 at the CDC. The lone surviving doc/researcher said of the zombie virus, “This is our extinction event.” Well, guess what: pure stupidity (or perhaps some criminal/genocidal purpose) is on the verge of making THIS our extinction event - FOR FREAKING REAL, not like some fictional story on TV.
UN. PHUCKING. BELIEVEABLE.
