<<The bad news is that Delta is not so bad compared to what might be coming our way>> Oh dear, looks like mother nature has us maybe lined up for a rough ride. What can we do in the face of these immense natural forces?

We can be sure Fauci, Wuhan et al were messing around with a lot more than 2% mortality wuflu. with similar death rates to SARS, which stands at 10 percent, and MERS, standing at 35 percent. 35% would be bad, but humanized H5N1 would kill about 69%. Not just old people. We should prepare for that. It might be covid was just a little test run. There's a "climate emergency". Many people think cutting the wotld population and stopping flying, driving, heating etc would be a great thing to cut CO2 and shrink the human footprint. When there is money to be made, power to be had, ideology to be followed, Evil to be indulged, with Good Intentions, the motivation and belief, it would be surprising if somebody doesn't let loose Delta H5N1 for 69% mortality. We're on the road to Hell, paved with Good Intentions along with money, bossing people around for fun, mixed with malevolence. Wuflu is just a little sniffle compared with H5N1 Delta version at 69% mortality Mqurice

jessescrossroadscafe.blogspot.com "Moral hazard is the probability that a party insulated from risk will behave differently from the way they would behave if fully exposed to the risk. Moral hazard arises because an individual or institution does not bear the full consequences of its actions, and therefore has a tendency to act with increasing recklessness, literally 'without reckoning.' It also encourages the rise to power of the sociopath in the affected organizations. It is difficult to explain moral hazard to tenured professors or the pampered princes of bureaucracy, who beat the drum with their silver spoons in support of shifting the risk of loss to the public every time that Wall Street falls into one of its own schemes and blows itself up. It is a lesson that the average person learns by the age of twelve and relearns, sometimes spectacularly, at least once in young adulthood. If you do something wrong there can be bad outcomes, and you will pay the price and penalty. Unfortunately there is a small but powerful oligopoly of privilege that is trying to project themselves onto the global stage while believing that they are immune to ordinary consequence, and have become addicted to the notion that 'others must pay' for their failures. Moral hazard comes from rewarding bad behaviour in markets with wristslaps and bailouts. It is a danger to the economy and to the public." Jesse, Moral Hazard, 22 March 2008
