How many pandemics we can fit in 2 years ?

Didn’t expect to write this one so early, but for whatever reason decide to do a quick search. Before you go down, you should read my And Then Came the Plague post, and specially the two threads I link inside it, to see for how long this disaster has been in the making.

Over the last two years, I warned many many many times the over focus and excessive investing, without paying attention or even considering the whole system, would create massive epidemics of diseases that would shift global, welll, everything. Buckle up.

A breadcrumb for the ones who pay attention. New vectors of attack for bioterrorist. And believe me they ARE coming. Read the screenshots.

You know what out of season rains, mosoons and floods would create ? Weird dengue epidemics. And one to keep in the back of your mind is Nipah Virus.

Just write it down on your prefered note taking app or paper (I am a paper man myself, but use apps too).

Thais snap up crocodile meat as pork prices surge

African swine fever seen hitting pork supply for months to come

Demand for crocodile meat is surging in Thailand as the price of pork continues to rise due to a supply shortage caused by the spread of African swine fever in the country.

The shortage of pork, an essential part of the Thai diet, is expected to last for months. Prime Minister Prayuth Chan-ocha last week ordered government agencies to address the issues of food supplies and price surges urgently. This is particularly important for him ahead of general elections set to be held by March 2023.

"Many food vendors and restaurants have come to me to ask for crocodile meat to buy,"

Thailand detected its first case of African swine fever on its soil on Jan. 11, while the disease has swept through Africa, Europe, and Asia in recent years. Though harmless to humans, the virus gives pigs hemorrhagic fever and has a high mortality rate. Hundreds of millions of pigs have been culled due to the disease globally.

Thailand has faced a pork shortage since mid-2021 and at least 159,000 of farmed pigs were culled between March and October of 2021. ²
