      I seriously doubted that but I googled it and its true. It makes no damn sense. Five years ago I bought a bathouse for $125.00. Not a damn single bat has been seen within miles of it. I work 6 miles from work and last summer I had some fly around the lights eating bugs. I pray that they come visit me. Some of my neighbors also have bat boxes. We love bats. We live next to an irrigation canal for the farms and the mosquitos are terrible in the summer.

    I am watching this 2 years later, when the pandemic is "over," and we have ABSOLUTELY become complacent... I just hope that when the next pandemic comes we still have enough recollection of corona to implement safety measures sooner... 'Cause there's no way we as a society will take the necessary measures to prevent it from happening.

      The fact that we know there are viruses that exist NOW that IF they ever jumped to humans...would kill around 60% of those infected....is goddamn terrifying. That scenario would make this current pandemic a fucking joke.
      99% of people would literally _refuse_ to leave their home. No one......NO ONE would show up for work. Anywhere. Essential workers, no one. And who on earth would blame them? Good thing that hasn't happened yet. And there's that word again......YET. These days that word sure has an aftertaste of nauseating hindsight. Sure, we've had a pandemic...but not THE pandemic....yet. Ok yeah, we had an attempted coup....but not a _successful_ coup....yet.

    I had a lady neighbor scream at me a while back when I was letting one of my snakes get some sun. She told me that I was threatening the lives of 'the entire city' because I was keeping a 'wild beast' as a pet. She accused me of infecting the neighborhood with with the 'plagues and viruses' from South Africa.
    The snake in question is a Boa. Boas are native to Central and South America.
    The snake in question was also captive bred from a breeder who lives just twenty minutes away. He's not spent a single day in the 'wild' and has routine check-ups yearly. His prey items are also domestically bred and bought from a small local business/rat breeder.
    Meanwhile, her five unfixed cats are free to wander the neighborhood fighting and fucking other stray cats and killing a bunch of native birds. and one of her friends has a yappy little poodle that shits all over it's front yard, shit that is never cleaned up.
    But yeah, sure Karen, my pet boa's definitely going to be the reason everyone's gonna catch the 'plagues and viruses'.

    Just a reminder, one of the places where the 1918 Pandemic started was likely the US. The hypothesis being that a US swine flu went with soldiers that went to UK to fight in World War I with British troops. Once the swine flu got into the trenches it spread amoung soldiers and then to civilians until it arrived in Spain. Finally, the Spanish, who were not involved in WWI, reported the deadly outbreak. Leading to decades of anti-Spanish bias. This is why scientists strongly recommend not calling a pathogen for the place/people it is initially discovered, because it might not really be from there and because I will likely result in demonization of the people associated with the virus's namesake.

    • @vhs3760
      @vhs3760 2 년 전 +3

      A wonderful point. When the COVID-19 pandemic was becoming an increasing threat, my microbiology professor told us: "There is an official name for this virus. We should call it the COVID-19 virus or the Corona virus. You should not call it the Wuhan virus. How would you guys feel if a virus was discovered in our city, and people around the world started to call it the Ottawa virus? If people only associated the name of our city with a virus?". What she said has really stuck with me.

      Same with me, sir/ma'am. I believe God gave me a great immune system. That's why I've never been hospitalized for any illness since I was a baby. However....
      Not everyone is so "#blessed". That's why God allowed us to discover vaccines in this modern age.
      You've told me you're up there in age in another reply; Do you remember an announcement that malaria was gone from the USA in the 50s? Polio just before the 80s? For those blessed with gifts OTHER than our current seemingly high health, vaccines are literal miracles -- just because we can understand the science doesn't make it less a miracle....
      ...And just because you don't trust it doesn't mean it's some evil agenda/conspiracy. If anyone USES them, or their guise, for evil -- such as intentionally giving Alabama Black men syphilis in 1932 -- they should be stopped; yet either way, that doesn't mean vaccines can only be bad.
      Hey, I prefer not to take any vaccine, especially if natural is sufficient. However, I'm not afraid to take any, and have Faith that my system will benefit and NOT be harmed, even if I don't need it as much as others.

      Just a few days ago I read about one of the Ebola outbreaks and Virologists living in safe Sweden traveled to South Africa to help hospitals and the first they had to do was transport bodies out of the hospital, people where literally dying sitting in the waiting room.

      @@kitcoffey7194 While I understand the sentiment, I don't think banning them altogether is the best move. The boring, and I think more effective solution (if enacted), is to dedicate more resources to animal surveillance testing in live animal markets and to enforce more serious repercussions when people break the rules. In regards to CAFOs, I think that there needs to be more support for smaller and less intensive production facilities-- both from the government and from the general public, and there are many ways to do this. All in all, banning wet markets and CAFOs nationally or internationally can cause intense food insecurities, and do more harm than good in the long run. I think the solution lies in regulation, not elimination.

Your argument here boils down to "if there's even one thing you're doing that I could describe as environmentally inefficient, then all your attempts at doing the least ecological harm are worthless", which is utter nonsense.

      This is a problem for all of us, but it certainly doesn't help that many of our forebears consistently opposed environmental interests despite decades of settled climate science. In 2021, I don't think you can say 'a generation of people that didn't know better'.

      ​@@BobCassidy ​ 'Boomer' usually applies to people born during the post-WWII baby boom, from about 1946 to 1964. Scientific consensus about climate change formed from the 1970s to the 1990s; so baby boomers came to the peak of their political power during the years when we had the best chance of preventing runaway global warming. You know, through actual systemic climate action, not petty complaints about power-hungry gaming PCs.
      Regarding knowing better - have you seen Soylent Green? It's a 1973 sci-fi film about the distant dystopian future of 2022, where the 'greenhouse effect' has raised global temperatures, killing crops and livestock. (Naturally, they resort to eating people.) Anyway, what were we talking about? Something about people in the past not knowing about global warming?
      Incidentally, lead-based paint is a great example of "scientists warned us about all of this, but we didn't do anything about it". It was only banned in the US in 1978, despite being a known hazardous substance and environmental pollutant since the 1890s. So yes, I'd say that waiting until 1978 to stop putting poison in the walls is the definition of "sitting around doing nothing for the environment".

This is slowing down vaccinations across the globe and letting more dangerous, and potentially vaccine resistant, variants develop and of course leading to more deaths.

    this segment in a nutshell:
    If we do not change a lot of habits drastically, we are f*cked.
    Of course we do NOT change any habits, not even in the slightest.
    So: We are f*cked.

      Well,... then let’s hope those of us that changed habits, have enough of an impact to protect oneself ... unfortunately a lot of people I heard from (including family members) still don’t take it serious in itself nor seems that they have the social awareness and obligation to protect ... I mean if we, humanity, are really really lucky we might can go out end of the year, but let’s face it „we are f*cked“
      And probably some deranged or uninformed politicians will decide something stupid because of all this, f*cking everything up even worse....

      Well john oliver said some stupid shit about how to actually change our habits. Switching to soy milk is not "draconian", it's nessesary. You all can start making a difference right away, this video may have scared you but what should the most is it's terrifying "all talk no action" attitude and blindness to the only real way to fix our future. I mean, a fucking app is supposed to be what keeps us safe according to him, but heaven forbid we all stop killing and eating animals. Really??

      In Longyearbyen, Svalbard, Norway, there's a cemetery with bodies preserved in the permafrost that contain the same strain of the H1N1 influenza virus that caused the 1918 Spanish Flu Pandemic. it's been preserved in the permafrost for more than 100 years, and it's also the reason why it's somewhat illegal to die in Svalbard.
