      It’s an extremely unplausible scenario as it’s nothing like Covid and more like a flu except it basically can’t spread between humans.

      And now you’re trying to play off criticism of your take as some kind of nationalist defensiveness lol

      Nah, it’s because the comment went from 1 to 100 really fast.

      This disease isn’t known to be airborne.

      This disease isn’t known to be untreatable. (Antibiotics FTW.)

      This disease isn’t known to cause death.

      This disease hasn’t lead to countless animals suffering in facilities underequipped to handle them. (Many people bought puppies to “help with loneliness” during covid, only to abandon them later, after they were all grown up.)

      This disease hasn’t shut down multiple cities or countries.

      This disease doesn’t threaten the food chain.

      This disease hasn’t lead governments to mandate the general public to wear PPE.

      This disease hasn’t helped overwhelm hospitals.

      Could you please explain why you think this will be the same as what happened in those places during covid? The scenarios are very different in multiple ways.
