Here's one more point to consider, and I told my co-workers this along with my explanation that "I don't want to sound like a doom & gloom kind of guy", but what if someone were to use a person like a viral bomb? Find someone that's sympathetic to their cause and load them with whatever is the most virulent, lethal and untreatable, and send them on a mission to infect as many people as possible.
THAT makes me shudder, as the results would be nothing short of a world wide disaster.
We've already seen that ANYONE can come to the US, from ANY part of the world, as long as they have the right docments.
Add to that the incompetance of just one medical staffer, one TSA agent, one bleeding-heart politician and we would be screwed!
We can't just keep pluggin along, hoping all is rianbows and unicorns (as my boss is fond of saying) when the world continues to collapse all around us and populations could become victims of a medical disaster of epic proportions!
OK, maybe I need to get out and fish a little to balance things out?
Hey, maybe we'll discover that fish slime is a cure of whatever diseases and viruses are waiting to infect us, in which case I think we'll all be OK!!!!
