anybody else feel like the early stages of a widespread prion disease incident would be largely indistinguishable from the long-covid ravaged "society" we've already got
prions can incubate for decades
I didn't need to know that 
Don't worry I will gladly sell you Dr. Barx's Prion Cleanse with a nice wintergreen flavor.
That's good news, I don't want to be around in decades anyway.
i think at first
prion diseases are a lot scarier than covid
Yea, the long incubation time of prions combined with the complete brain melting that the covid pandemic caused (both covid symptoms/long covid impacts and the societal impacts) and the tendency of capitalist governments to downplay/cover up these health problems (micro plastics/forever chemicals/covid/every other example I can't think of off the top of my head) makes me dread the possibility of a widespread prion outbreak that would be ignored until way too late.
Ah fuck the solution is going to be using ~~AktionT4~~ "MAID" to ~~murder~~ "euthanize" these prion victims isn't it
I mean usually prion diseases go more like dormant -> active -> dead within a year, but apparently this one doesn't so who knows
For a lot of fun, google "covid" + "[virtually any disease]" in order to find out how covid is basically airborne any disease:
oh
No, feel like we're just getting started still. 
God damn North America is a fucking Petri dish
God damn North America
Feels like it's what he's doing, is this plague number 2 or 3? Bird flu in the US too
That's in the bible!
I stg I hate this fucking continent.
To make matters worse, the province this comes from, New Brunswick, is essentially a feudal state owned by one family, the Irvings. They own the gas stations, media outlets, and just about everything else in that province
Wouldn't be surprised if they were the ones pushing to cover this
I never heard of the Irvings so I googled. I found an article - "The Irvings, Canada’s robber barons" - but the scrollbar was suspiciously small. Sure enough when I scrolled down far enough - I reached the paywall. I fucking hate that.
It's always New Brunnswick, https://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/new-brunswick/agent-orange-us-gagetown-1.6906995
In the backstory of the hit indie darling Disco Elysium a prion disease outbreak was one of the things that precipitated a widespread revolution against the existing social order, culminating in the world's first and only short-lived communist state. The deplorable living conditions of the peasantry finally became unbearable with the influx of a devastating illness spread by means that those in power could act to prevent but chose not to and revolutionary armies formed 
i also enjoy fiction
My baseless theory is that the Irvings had to do with the silencing of this issue in NB as those fuckers control almost everything there.
They've been covering it up for YEARS.
I guess the world is really gonna end.
