Well, it won’t be Covid-25, it’ll be H5N1 bird flu, which so far has a mortality rate of 50%-60% in people and damn near 100% in birds and 70% in cats. Covid-19 was around 1% and killed millions.
Even if bird flu is more around 30%, that’s an insane number.
The bird flu vaccine has mostly been developed and iirc is available in some European countries. We have a vaccine here too but it hasn’t gone to trial.
If you get that vaccine or not may very well be life or death.
To be fair, if the death rate is like 50%, anti-maskers won’t be so anti-mask for long.
You know how religious people always say stuff like “There are no atheists in a foxhole” or some bs like that? (I hate that phrase btw) I’d say “There are no virus-deniers in a pandemic with 50+% death rate, and people arouns you are dropping dead en-masse on the street.” Survival instincts and fear will overide whatever conspiracy theories they have. People would be self quarrantining.
I predict some riots and people both left and right of the political spectrum would storm white house.
Also: It’d actually be over much quicker. Probably over in a month (with billions dead worldwide, obviously).
Herman Cain Award will prove you wrong, along w people believing this is like Moses and the mark on the door - they won’t think they will die from it. There are just people who cannot acknowledge reality.
Lemme tell you something. My brother who is a Democrat (who probably voted Harris), is also into those anti-vax conspiracy theories. He does wear a mask, so that’s a step up from the right wingers, but he says because covid has less than 1% death rate, he won’t get vaccinated. Idk wtf lol 🤷♂️
He stepped on a nail at work and still went to the hospital to get the tentanus shot aka a vaccine. So I guess the fear of tentnus overrode whaever conspiracy theories lol.
(idk if i spell tentnus correctly, but i’m too lazy to spell check)
