    “Is this an indication that we may be closer to seeing a readily transmitted virus between people? No,” Osterholm said. “Right now, this is a key that sits in the lock, but it doesn’t open the door.”

    This is crazy amounts of cope

      During the height of covid I started to skim articles first and if they looked like copium - close the tab. I was becoming an insane person. I didn’t read the article I posted because I assumed it would fill me with anger. So much reportage is so bad because of the - cough - virus of American exceptionalism.

      How bad and/or informative is it?

          It’s a good thing I didn’t read it.

          -–

          I made that about a week ago. I get the sense I could post it nearly every day in c/doomer.

      seems crazy to pretend that we can catch it from an animal as genetically distant to us as a bird but that we couldn’t catch it from a fellow human.

        Check that video I posted, it’s currently transferring through the eyes, because that’s where we’re most similar. Explaining why people are getting conjunctivitis.
