Scamdemics. The only pandemic during the Rona dystopia was that of fascism and stupid.
The WHO and their henchmen like Blair and Vallance are like a biker gang driving around looking for trouble, constantly trying stir up shit somewhere.
If you are anxious about epidemics then relax with a discrete stochastic simulation – a game of cards that doesn’t grow exponentially and averages to the standard model.

Just as with COVID death, H5N2 death means death after a positive test for H5N2.
Even though in this case a positive test was impossible.
Yep, the new Scamdemic H5N2.
Well done to that Mexican Health Secretary Jorge Alcocer for telling the truth to the people, in defiance of the Marxist Ethiopian Terrorist still in charge of the World Health Organization.
It seems to be going the way of Monkeypox, or should that be Moneypox.
Or even Monkeybollox.
Considering humans have been interacting with just about all the animals on the planet for millennia and that we have migrated around and colonized all of the planet, why is it only recently that viruses decide to jump species?
That’s because the human race has been infected with WHO roughly in the same way a certain Nostromo crew member got infected with alien lifeform. Periodic outbursts of pandemics WHO uses to sustain itself are the inevitable consequence.
They’re doing ‘gain of function’ research which is apparently investigating how viruses might develop to jump species… having seen how that went with Covid, they’ve decided it couldn’t possibly go wrong again and are carrying on, with different viruses.
For geeks, they seem woefully ill-informed about a certain genre of sci-fi books and films!
A pandemic of bullshit is my best guess.
