If we all die from the bird flu can we die after collectively doing the chicken dance?

Just feel bad for the birds ;( not treated with any kind of decency or respect

I don’t wanna get my hopes up so fear-mongering aside, how actually likely is any of this?

Because I keep remembering that humans are notoriously bad at future prediction.

Surely you aren't expecting a calculated probability between 0% and 100%. The most useful thing the scientists can do for us here is to prepare for the worse (while hoping for the best), and that is done by carefully selecting the recommendations they chose to publish (in the article).

Ugh, do we really need Trump + Pandemic again?

do we really need Trump + Pandemic again

If there were any justice in the universe, he would have died from the virus he unleashed on the world

[-] Furbag@lemmy.world 20 points 11 hours ago

It's entirely avoidable, if only Trump would have actually learned something from his first term and actually funded research and prevention teams. Sadly, he only has the foresight to see how cutting those programs saves the US Govt. a penny now, and not the wisdom to see how that panny would have been money well spent if it prevented us from having to spend thousands on recovery efforts.

Trump would have actually learned something

That's physically impossible at this point.

But they made so much money stealing PPE last time! Probably some good extortion money, too.

Huge bonus if they get to hold a cure over people's heads, too.

When is this coming ?

Torture and murder of non-human animals <---> Torture and murder of human animals.

But I guess the carnists gotta have their sandwiches. \s

[-] KAtieTot 18 points 12 hours ago

Y'all can look around and see how little human life is valued. It's not about humans, it's about them and only them.

[-] LH0ezVT@sh.itjust.works 12 points 9 hours ago

Yup. People don't care about the kids mining their cobalt. To care about the animals they eat would be a long process.

[-] geminiqry@lemmy.world 4 points 6 hours ago

And what about the kids that are forced to work in slaughterhouses then? Silly gotchas are not helping anyone.

[-] Lycarael@lemmy.world 1 points 7 hours ago

There isn't going to be another pandemic this soon after COVID. Pandemics happen about every 100 years. Pretty much everything happens in cycles and is predictable based on historical patterns. There isn't going to be another pandemic this soon after COVID.

[-] lengau@midwest.social 37 points 7 hours ago

This is not how probability works.

[-] RedditIsDeddit@lemmy.world 19 points 6 hours ago

That's not how shit works dumbass

[-] argarath@lemmy.world 31 points 7 hours ago

We've had once in a century economic problems thrice in less than 30 years, STFU

[-] Knock_Knock_Lemmy_In@lemmy.world 9 points 6 hours ago

Last time was a red 9, there's not going to be another red 9 for 36 more spins.
