Flights to land at crowded international terminals?
Passengers and crew to walk through those crowded terminals before even a cursory health screening?
No quarantine whatsoever?
Dumped on the street in scores of major cities with merely an admonishment to call us during regular business hours should they get sick?
No demeaning face masks, etc.?
Bring Out Your Dead
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.
