How do you stop 9 million people from leaving a city???

Chinese officials are disinfecting whole streets and parks with clouds of gas and chilling footage has emerged of roadside quarantine tents, hastily erected to isolate suspected cases. One resident told the BBC the atmosphere in the city felt like 'the end of the world'. Concerned medics were seen wheeling a suspected patient out of the airport in Fuzhou in south-eastern China in an elaborate see-through quarantine pod.

Yup,  if jumping from mammal to reptile and back it's pretty interesting.   And spooky.

"The Martians had no resistance to the bacteria in our atmosphere to which we have long since become immune. Once they had breathed our air, germs which no longer affect us began to kill them. The end came swiftly. All over the world, their machines began to stop and fall."
The final line of the movie version "War of the Worlds" by H.G. Wells

Science fiction is not so unreal a future as evidenced by past writings that became all so real today.
Could irony dictate that humanity may seek to colonize Mars if the conditions on this planet prove to be fatal to our health: bacteria, viruses, and lack of immunological resistance?  We may be the martians on our own planet yet.  Undecided

Revelation 6:8 So I looked, and behold, an ashy pale horse [[a]black and blue as if made so by bruising], and its rider’s name was Death, and Hades (the realm of the dead) followed him closely. And they were given authority and power over a fourth part of the earth to kill with the sword and with famine and with plague (pestilence, disease) and with wild beasts of the earth.

1720. The bubonic plague was spread by infected fleas carried by small animals. It could also be transmitted through exposure to the body fluids from a dead plague-infected animal.

1820. The cholera outbreak was caused by the Vibrio cholerae bacteria found in somewhat salty and warm waters. Humans get infected after drinking liquids or eating foods contaminated with the bacteria.

1920. Meanwhile, the Spanish Flu was caused by an unusually deadly strain of “avian influenza” or bird flu.

Hmmmm is there a pattern? Food for tin foil hat thought.

Somewhere in the middle, "12,000 – 61,000" is the CDC estimate of the annual death count in the USA from Influenza...

Although the 80,000 is accurate for at least one year:

12k goes back to when there were little amount of flu shots being given if at all, deaths have gone up with more flu shots being given since the fed govt is paying for the flu shots.

12K goes back when the population (in billions) was about half.

Nobody forcing you to take the flu shot, so don't.  Big pharma's got nothing on you, till you need them.

BTW, enjoy the 10 years big pharma has added onto your lifespan by providing all those shots, and pills, liquids that help millions of people live disease free or live with diseases that would have subjected them to short lives.

longer lives are the result of cleaner food, cleaner drinking water and human waste sanitation and not big pharma.  when those three were dirty and full of all kinds of microbes human life span was short.  This has been well documented in history.

I would say that the state of drinking water in the US is better, but not great.

http://theconversation.com/the-us-drinking-water-supply-is-mostly-safe-but-thats-not-good-enough-115028

Also, our food has so much chemicals in it.  I would hardly say that it is cleaner.

Sanitation has never been better.  Except when it leaks into our rivers.

Just received an email this morning. My company has suspended all travel to and from China, all China based joint operation areas are not coming into work, ban is effective for 3 weeks as of now.

We receive a lot of parts and tooling from China, this will really put a strangle on manufacturing companies in the US if logistics are suspended.
