Canadians guard your felines!

Might as well make fun of the next Black Plague while we can.



Interesting bug brewing.

Heard someone (CDC?) saying that 500 million people could die if this mutated to infect people. Since it has changed enough to infect another mammal, the odds of something bad get better.

Just a bucket of cheer today, aren't I?

*sigh* Never thought I could catch anything that bad from a Canadian pussy.

Simple: Keep animals inside if it becomes a problem. Problem = solved.

This isn't "28 days later". I'm not worried in the least.

Ahh, but that is from transmission from bird to human. If it mutates into a form where it can pass from human to human, Skoorb may rethink his position.

LOL, cats. Did you see what they were, a Thai leopard and a white tiger. I haven't see too many of those up here.

You didn't have to wait long. Sorry.

I did it for the rimshot.

Serious post of the day: The global outbreak of diseases like SARS only shows that our medical systems are not prepared to handle a disease crisis of great magnitude. Preparation is key in saving the millions of lives which may be at risk. And... stuff.

Wrong the global outbreak of Sars show that people are incredibly f*cking stupid and only care about themselves and not if the infect hundred or thousands of other people. If people is this world had some self-responsibilty SARS wouldn't have even hit the newswires.

Still not worried, even though <i>Wrong the global outbreak of Sars show that people are incredibly f*cking stupid and only care about themselves and not if the infect hundred or thousands of other people. If people is this world had some self-responsibilty SARS wouldn't have even hit the newswires. </i> that is true. I envision a world whereby if you knowingly have a bad contagious virus/disease and you don't go out of your way to keep it from other people you get to die in a hole.

The problem is when people are incubating a virus, and are able to spread it before they know they are really ill. As others here can tell you this happens all the time. Now, I am not buying cemetary futures myself, but knowing what I know, there is real reason to be concerned.
