        Is this a concern with modern medicine?

          I once got down voted to hell because I was accused of Russophobia. I am not. These plagues, no matter where they originate, are not natural, they are bioengineered on purpose to be resilient against modern medicine AND the use of antibiotics might even boost their lethality.

          Bioweapons need to be made the most illegal of all weapons. More than nukes, too.

          Just in case you’ve been sleeping too well lately: https://www.popularmechanics.com/science/a74033610/russia-plague-lab-worker-dies

          In the 20th century, biological warfare researchers learned how to make the plague much more deadly through genetic engineering.

          The report said 189 people were being monitored following the illness of an employee at an anti-plague research institute in Irkutsk. Alexei Tsydenov, head of the nearby Republic of Buryatia, said the woman had died from an unspecified form of plague.

            anti-plague research institute

            Looks inside: epicenter of the next pandemic 👍

            These epidemiologists aren’t doing their jobs right.

          We could, and would, quickly run out of antibiotics in the case of exponential spread.

            No one’s stepping up to staunch this, and I’ve played way too much Pandemic to not see the crayon on the WH wall.

          If it’s just a plague, no. If it was weaponized, possibly. But that’s unlikely.

            A woman died and her colleagues are being quarantined from their family in a building. Usually it’s not a problem, but apparently in russia, it is.

        A literal plague. There’s several variants, this sounds more like pneumonic plague, which, unless it’s a bioweapon, is much easier to treat from what I understand.

          Pneumonic plague is much more dangerous than bubonic plague.

            Second only to pneumatic plagues, ofc.

            Though, mnemonic plagues’re up there, too.

              I’m beginning to think that you’re the plague.

                    No worries, I was aiming for silliness, too. 😅 All good, though! Carry on! 🖖🏼

                    FWIW, that isn’t my downboat.
