    we really like thai food. coincidentally, we went to a thai restaurant on our first date. also coincidentally, she got sick. so nothing could possibly go wrong on this trip. nothing at all. the fates have been clear.

    ya, the airbrush t shirt ideas are through the roof either way, for when we get back home and go to Gatlinburg.

    This guy sounds like he is full of shit, ala Alex Jones. Is the implication that a pharma company made a dangerous but treatable virus?

    They are plenty of other people talking about it. I know nothing about the guy who tweeted it, his views or what is he about. I just saw it and found it interesting.

    I heard on the radio a guy freaking out because a company in Mannassas sells and makes corona virus... What he doesn't realize is that corona virus has been around a long time and has been used for research for a long time. It's also throughout nature. Dogs have been receiving corona virus vaccines for decades for a strain that causes them illness. These things are an unfortunate reality in this world, and a global, interconnected world economy along with exposure to all sorts of exotic animals makes this inevitable (that's where HIV came from, that's where Ebola came from, it is where a lot of these new illnesses come from).

    Check out "Spillover" by David Quammen. These things are predictable because they are a consequence of known natural processes and human-generated risks. No deliberate engineering is required.
