I worked in pandemic planning in the NHS for a while.
We were taught that Spanish Flu in 1918 is now regarded to have infected 500 million people and killed 100 million of them. Mainly young healthy people too, which is just fucking bizarre. It reduced the life expectancy of Americans by over twelve years.
Anybody who thinks that that NHS were wrong to take SARS and Swine Flu seriously probably don't realise what is at stake. All it takes is a virus that is as deadly as SARS and as transimattable as Swine Flue (or this new Coronavirus) and we're all proper fucked.
Doomed I tell you. Temporary mass grave doomed.

Yeah. Untreatable viruses are untreatable.
