Yep. We’re only ever a few days from anarchy, given the right conditions.

[One protester was heard suggesting they should be kept at Chernobyl, the site of the worlds worst nuclear disaster in 1986. Another suggested taking them to parliament, while another said Zelenskiy, Ukraines president, should house them himself if he really believed there was no danger.]
LOL. If it really is a bioweapon engineered by Chinese scientists to kill off the Chinese population, Ukrainians have nothing to worry about.

I’m rather surprised we haven’t seen some of this before now.
I hope that’s not what is ahead.
Half expected to see Asians targeted soon.
With 15 cases in the nation, I hope folks don’t lose it.

I just saw the story about how Dean Koontz had a man made virus in his book from years ago called Wuhan-400 developed in a lab outside of Wuhan. That is some surreal stuff right there.

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.

So these protesters SMASHED THE WINDOWS of a bus carrying people the protesters believed might be infected. The stupidly of angry people can be incomprehensible.
To: NorseViking
I don’t want to denigrate the intelligence of Ukrainians but ... is really a good idea to break the windows out of buses loaded with people who might be carrying a deadly virus?
What was their next move going to be? Drag them out of the buses and beat them bloody with axe handles? Think, people!

Let's see, there is a bus with people who potentially have a deadly virus so I want to throw rocks at it to break the glass and if I'm really lucky get one of those infected people to bleed all over the place.
I'm surprised Ukraine hasn't landed people on Mars with all the rocket scientists there.

Ukraine sounds like the eurasian version of toothless hillbillies.

Because breaking the glass keeping the virus from spreading out from the vehicle is SUCH a good idea.

That is the 1989 release under his own name. In the 1981 first edition for which he used the pseudonym Leigh Nichols, the disease was Gorki-400 from the Soviet Union.
