Scientists simulated an outbreak of a deadly virus which spreads like the flu Researchers say experts could not make a vaccine fast enough to save millions The made-up virus killed 150 million people in 20 months in the scenario Experts warn the world is not prepared to deal with an inevitable outbreak The National Health Commission of China said authorities were also examining 1,072 suspected cases of the virus that first emerged in central city of Wuhan. A global pandemic of a flu-like virus could kill nearly a billion people if it started to spread tomorrow, scientist have warned.
Experts in the US created a simulation to find out what would happen if a deadly type of influenza virus spread across the globe.
A made-up virus which was spread by coughing managed to kill 150 million people – more than double the UK population – in less than two years in the fictional situation.

Why can’t they warn people instead of instantly screaming the world is coming to an end?
We only have 11 years. I am not gonna freak out from cry wolf people from the totalitarian hysteria brigade.
Could
“Experts warn...”

Stopped reading right there.
That should make Greta whatshername happy.
Under a WORST CASE scenario, 10 BILLION people would die!!
:)
Y’don’t suppose they could be exporting this virus (or something worse) hidden in those endless thousands of shipping containers loaded with countless tons of consumer goods destined to every household in America?
Only 11? I thought we had 11.2 years?
Not as many clicks
Come on, experts. 900 million has no shock value in today’s day age. Make that 900 billion. Or better yet 900 trillion. As in 900 trillion will die if the virus got out of hand. Then end your analysis to the NYT.
end = send
They created a video game and killed 900 million people. Gamers do the same thing. I’m skeered.
It figures . . .
Ski break coming up soon then spring break, I have been in 5 international airports in 5 weeks and two more to go next month, with those flying incubators and the millions of people passing through airports every day. The movie Contagion is not a fantasy, you do not have to travel, your neighbors, coworkers and family are.
“Researchers say experts could not make a vaccine fast enough to save millions”
more complete bullshit from the “experts” ... flublok, the only pure recombinate influenza vaccine, is made in Protein Sciences’ 2,000 liter bioreactor in Pearl River, New York, a bioreactor that is designed to make massive quantities of new viral vaccines within a matter of days ... the ancient egg-grown vaccines that take weeks to grow in gigantic numbers of eggs and then partially purify is 20th century technology ...
Heard a lefty get all concerned over this today. I thought surely you should be happy - this will take care of your global warming problem. They dont like it when they are not the ones who get to choose who dies - also many of them have no idea or faith what comes after!
Otherwise they could just make a disease that is 100% lethal, 100% contagious which can spread within a day but leaves the victim alive and coughing for weeks. That should be able to kill everyone within a year and make a lot of scary headlines today.
Think of the carbon emissions from all the mass cremations. That’ll add to the global warming problem. This is hugh and series.
