re: #232 Teukka
The worrying news is that it is treatable with antibiotics, which raises the spectre of antibiotics resistant strains of it. Another is if we get an outbreak large enough to warrant lockdowns and similar measures, we know already what happened with CoViD…
Sorry to be such a blackpilled doomer…
There’s no way on God’s green earth that deniers can dismiss BUBONIC PLAGUE as “just another flu.” (To say nothing of pneumonic.) Also, since there are no asymptomatic carriers (that I know of), it can’t spread silently. So yes, there could be a problem, but I would expect it to remain pretty localized.
