Some of you may know that I'm working in Korea. Well, some a-hole decided he needed to go ride a camel, and came back, and there's a MERS explosion now. Mortality rate 40% FUCK.
I run an English school, which is now of course closed, and we're looking at losses of about $10, 000 at least-- possibly more. And the Koreans are so fucking incompetent at containing this outbreak that I reckon we're about 3 weeks from having guys in bird masks rolling up and down the streets with corpse wagons.
I'm very curious, though. Are these kinds of things more noticeable these days because our communications are so much better? Or is the world going to get hit with plague-like waves of death unlike anything the world has seen yet? I'm kind of thinking we are ALL going to be in the same boat sometime in our lives: someone in the community getting quarantined with a deadly disease, and the world just shutting down and holding it's breath to see if the disease has spread to secondary or tertiary victims.
Oh well, there's good news, too. I have lots of free time to play GTA V.
