Meanwhile my country's most powerful public health official: "vaccines are dangerous because they train viruses to be stronger, we should instead simply infect as many birds as possible"

Well that drinking raw milk is paying off, congrats. Someone should strap RFK Jr to a chair and make him drink gallons of infected raw milk.

This is literally the worst possible time for it to happen. If you think global trade and prices are fucked right now then just you wait.

Thankfully the US has a president who is deeply experienced in pandemic management and bringing society together in common cause so I should manage ok. 😭

How to prepare for this shit again? I guess I can start by storing some masks, and a lot more food.

Any advice or thoughts? I can work from home fulltime, and grocery deliveries is possible.

My recommendation is to honestly just do what we did during covid. The government likely won't be enforcing anything this time so we're probably gonna be on our own. Also I recommend stocking up on things asap. We're already having supply chain issues and it's gonna get infinitely worse if or when this pops off.

I live in Norway, so the government will do everything in it's power to protect its citizens probably. Like it did during COVID.

Theres no supply chain issues here currently either. During COVID pretty much everything was available besides acceptably priced GPUs

And they mostly won't

Just saying this based off covid which came after sars2 and i remember in each time there were warning signs way WAY before and nobody really bothered.

Sure, covid may have shaken governments a bit and people maybe finally remember, but most will just let it go happen until its right around the door, to only then spring in action when its again too late
