re: #25 Blind Frog Belly White

My Wingnut cousin in West Virginia ‘liked’ a post on FB today, where Kristen Powers called the euthanizing of the dog in Madrid ‘Pure Evil”.

Pure Evil? If euthanizing a dog to prevent the further transmission of a zoonotic communicable disease with 50% mortality is ‘Pure Evil’, what descriptors do you have left for serial killers, mass murderers and genocides?

I see it as a missed opportunity. That dog could have been a valuable research subject to quarantine, observe, and test. Knowing if pet dogs can carry and transmit the disease would be real helpful knowledge.
