In the news today there are reports that the scientists have resurrected the Spanish Flu.
They have done this to study how it worked because it is closely related to bird flu.
Good and bad.
Good to know that there are people working on the possibility of bird flu infecting humans. After all it has killed over 60% of people who have caught it.
Bad to know that the Spanish Flu is on the planet again. After all it killed upto 50 million people.
Nake no mistake about it, we are not at the top of the food chain. A deadly flu virus will take the honors someday.
This is not about the Eric Hoffer book but he still might turn up from time to time.
