Are you worried about another pandemic?

[robocop666]

We have one every hundred years or so. Some are more deadly than others. We are nor protected from them no matter how hard we try.

[WindAtMyBack]

Nope. There have been several in my lifetime. They just don't get the media attention like the recent one. In much of the world, it's pretty much ongoing. When COVID broke out, it was small compared to the polio and measles outbreak - but nobody hears about or cares about third world countries where epidemics are the norm.

It's a waste of time to worry about all the hundreds of ways I could get sick, injured or die. I take reasonable precautions for the serious and likely stuff, and don't worry about the rest - "the rest" includes all viruses and other diseases.

I used to work in dangerous trades. I knew that every day when I went to work I could be seriously injured or killed. People who worry about viruses don't know the meaning of danger. There is no comparison.

Unfortunately stuff happens in life & all you can do is roll with it & hope for the best.

Stock market will drop & when stocks go on sale I know what to buy again.

[butterly248]

Yes and no. Tbh it is probably very likely to happen again ngl

[NathanDavis]

nope... we'll just wing it

not like we have much of a choice...

precautions have been taken, though...

[robocop666]

we are more prepared now. People can work from home

[NathanDavis]

I'm still working from an office at my place... got used to it, ended up liking it

[robocop666]

oh ok thats good. People like you make pandemics safer. Places where everyone was on top of each other died in the last few.

[mattissebfan5]

Well it is life disease and illness but no point to worry on something that we don't know if will happen and with Covid we are better prepared

I am worried that the democrats will create another pandemic so they can steal another election.

[rigmarole]

Ukraine has fallen. That was one of their biolab locations... There are more though... It will take time to clean them all up.

[exitseven]

@rigmarole China is still making bio weapons.

[standardguy]

No, we know there will be another pandemic. They've already planned it and taken the effort to synchronize the entire Earth's behavior.

[Anonymous]

They happen every 100 years or so, so not really given my at best 30 years left

[butterly248]

This is very true!

[Nikki1989]

Of course. It is always a worry.

[Jmmmfi4]

No. I'll be dead. Probably.

[jimmy2]

Nope
