Where's the petri dish thread?

So which is worse? A plague style epidemic, or something like tuberculosis which kills about a million people a year and has killed well over a billion in history. It's the infectious disease with the highest death total in history.

A plague style epidemic is worse. We still get NCAA tournament and I can still go to a bar with TB around.

Good call. Plus fuck developing countries. Amirite? Shout out to robert Koch for discovering mycobacterium tuberculosis the cause of TB. won the 1905 nobel prize for it.

Also, did you know about 6 million people have leprosy right now?

Also, doc holiday was awesome in tombstone and he had TB.

Thank goodness we’re allowing it to ruin our economy for the foreseeable future and knock us back to Third World conditions! But, hey, at least it makes Trump less likely to be re-elected, right? SO worth it!

Pardon me. I need to go poop and wipe with a handful of leaves.

[ousdahl]

well at least make sure the leaves aren't poison ivy.

[PhDhawk]

I think that'll give you coronavirus

[ousdahl]

one time I thought I had the herpes virus but it turns out it was just poison ivy on my dong.

[chiknbut]

You do realize that if we just open everything back up, there's a good chance a billion people will get this, and if the fatality rate were to drop five-fold from where it is now, that it would still kill more people than cancer? And that the onslaught would still wreck the economy?

I think it is all intentionally being slow-played so that the economy will be in shambles come November.

As hard as this is hitting the economy it would be 20x worse if we let everything go back to normal.

It’s not that so much as my college is cutting staff left and right and is already hinting that Fall semester may not happen. Add in that volume at my private practice has been cut in half and my calendar for April looks like garbage, and, yes, I am a bit concerned about what my world is going to look like come June. Sorry to inconvenience you with my concerns.

just be glad you aren’t one of the 10 million that is already out of work

or, one of those who has been infected/hospitalized

or, one who has already died, alone in the hospital

or, the family member of someone dying or who has died, and you can’t/couldn’t see them before they pass
