Nipah, the next big problem virus! - bjcheung77 - 07-24-2024
Oops it happened again...
We have a new virus! Previously, Corona from China... Now, Nipah from India... Mask up India! Let's try to contain this the best we can and hope for the best as there isn't a vaccine for this newest one just yet, hopefully they'll come out with something soon if this spreads quickly...

They're not similar. coronavirus was "novel" never seen before by the human body. This one seems more along the lines of hantavirus/ebola, where a flair up happens every now and then.

That's right. This one can't spread as fast as corona.

I don't like it when people try to create panic like this. The media is already trying to scare people into hoarding stuff by saying the dockworker strike is going leave store shelves empty.
