But seriously now that we've learned that COVID may have originated outside China this thread keeps coming back to me.

    Shit you got downvoted to fuck but i think you are right. As climate change advances and theres's mass migration of animals and vectors and shit intermixing the development of novel disease is gonna increase significantly. And the chances that some of these new diseases reach a human population are gonna increase due to their migration and increased chances of being generated. And as more and more money is needed to counter climate effects and costs, less and less money will be available to prevent and treat novel diseases. And as more and more people are left to live in squalor due climate catastrophe, more and more chances they will catch novel diseases. It's a long list of etc and self reinforcing feedback loops.

      I got downvoted because of the last two paragraphs, but yes, you are absolutely correct.

      The game was rigged from the start w/r/t Covid.
