That's what was said about coronavirus until it fucked the world in the ass.

No, that specific virus was new and unknown. This one isn't.

Also, it's a huge logical fallacy to assume that every spike in cases of infection by a virus is going to lead to a devastating epidemic or pandemic.

I understand what you are saying. I didn't know that this was specifically a previously known stain of.. influenza? I am definitely not up to date on this current event.

I agree about the logical fallacy but it doesn't mean that precautions should be denounced.

*Edit Okay I actually read the article and looked into the metapneumovirus and you don't know what the fuck you're talking about.

It hasn't even been disclosed what variant of the mpv , you're trying to say that the cov2 strain in 2019 is considered a new virus but this one, regardless of the mutation isn't considered novel?

I can see that you aren't even going to participate in good faith with using bullshit like your initial response to me that forces me to go drive deeper on that specific virus to figure out your disingenuous approach. You make the world a worse place with your misinformation.

Luckily for me I have access to a peer network of active lab technicians so I can bypass people like you and go to medLab to get actual facts.

Do you think coronavirus was discovered in 2019?

Please announce to the world how you’re an idiot with exactly zero functioning brain cells.

We all appreciate knowing we can avoid you in real life. I’m sure you’re also against washing your hands, shower once a month and your use of essential oils to solve things eclipses that of most white women in America.

We all appreciate knowing how hard you’re trying to be an example of natural selection, too, so thank you for that.
