i always laugh when false color SEMs are slapped on as a background for scientific journalism cuz medical cases don't really have big dramatic imagery
They should put some pictures of teratomas or something with the teeth and the hair
Which is weird, because we have some VERY dramatic pictures of the plague. Most of them in black and white, thankfully.
IIRC people die from plague every year
Yep, and every time people post about it like it's something new, and every time people inform them that it happens every year.
So... Just to be clear on what you're saying: this isn't anything unusual, it's just clickbait, and everywhere else doesn't need to immediately close their borders?
wait are you telling me SEVEN people died of the plague when OBAMA was president?!
hmm... could this be politicized news? 🤔
I didn't realize that Making America Great Again meant bringing us back to pre- Columbian standards. The natives will be happy.
The US health system is already using trustworth treatments

It will get worse, but then there will be a New Renaissance. Trump is right!
