oh my god what the fuck? you know what, this flu is like some killer flu or some shit because everyone i have spoken to is coming down with it. how is that for this place? all survived the null attack to be killed by a cold? you do realize that the influenza virus can give you shit like heart failure and sepsis? i mean jesus, your arm could drop off. other bits of you could fall off.

so if you don't have this flu bullshit then go lock yourself away and don't talk to anyone and if we all die then at least we'll come back. maybe. unless it's all fucked up then who the hell knows anymore?

it'll be smallpox next.

[So..if someone told you there's a disease where people start growing cow parts, would you believe them?

No, that's not a real disease, it's just what people feared when they started experimenting with vaccinations. The first experiments involved dairymaids who had caught cowpox, but doctors found they were immune to smallpox]

[I don't know when you were born, kid, but yes, until I was a little younger than you, there was a smallpox vaccine. They stopped because the virus was all but eradicated except for the CDC. They only give it to military because the work we do puts us at risk for chemical/biological warfare-hell, even our uniforms are treated against possible infection.
