Such things exist. Some have existed for a long time, without human intervention.
Consider anthrax, consider plague (which is still around), consider ebola.
It’s not the existence of such biologicals that’s the problem, it’s only a question of effectively distributing them so as to outpace and overwhelm efforts to combat them.
Do that, and alles ist kaputt.

An emotional research team became tearful as they described how data shows the disease was slowed by 75% in patients. It means the decline you would normally expect in one year would take four years after treatment, giving patients decades of “good quality life”, Prof Sarah Tabrizi told BBC News. The new treatment is a type of gene therapy given during 12 to 18 hours of delicate brain surgery.
Results from the trial – which involved 29 patients – have been released in a statement by the company uniQure, but have not yet been published in full for review by other specialists. The data showed that three years after surgery there was an average 75% slowing of the disease based on a measure which combines cognition, motor function and the ability to manage in daily life. The data also shows the treatment is saving brain cells. Levels of neurofilaments in spinal fluid – a clear sign of brain cells dying – should have increased by a third if the disease continued to progress, but was actually lower than at the start of the trial. “This is the result we’ve been waiting for,” said Prof Ed Wild, consultant neurologist at the National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery at UCLH. “There was every chance that we would never see a result like this, so to be living in a world where we know this is not only possible, but the actual magnitude of the effect is breathtaking, it’s very difficult to fully encapsulate the emotion.”

hey guess what is 99% effective in keeping children from contracting respiratory illness by airborne route, even before they need a 1/3 to 3/4 effectiveness in keeping people out of hospital
In children it was found to be 72.8% effective in keeping them out of hospital once contracting Super-K, and for 18 to 64-year-olds 66.3% effective. Like most other viruses, however, the over-65 group took a sudden dive – 31.7% effective. The data showed the current influenza vaccination was still the best form of protection available against Super-K, Barr said.

Amazon has confirmed that it has had an outbreak of a ‘Victorian disease’ at one of its warehouses. The online retail behemoth said there were several cases of the condition, and said that a ‘screening programme’ was in progress, and was being done with ‘an abundance of caution’. They added that while this was going on, the site would continue to operate as normal, and they were following guidance from the UK’s National Health Service (NHS) and UK Health Security Agency (UKHSA). It has been confirmed that 10 people working at a warehouse in Coventry in the Midlands, where some 3,000 people are employed, had tested positive for the disease back in September. Following the outbreak, Amazon was faced with calls to send all staff at the affected warehouse home with full sick leave.

The UK has lost its measles elimination status, the World Health Organization has announced. The move was based on the spread of cases in 2024 when there were 3,600 suspected cases. Elimination status means there is no sustained transmission so this decision was largely expected, given the scale of the outbreaks in 2024.
There were more than 1,000 cases last year as well. The move is also a reflection of the fact vaccination rates are below the 95% threshold required to achieve herd immunity – when enough people in a community are vaccinated against a disease, making it hard for the pathogen to spread.

Pahoinvointia, oksennusta, ripulia ja usein matalaa kuumetta aiheuttava norovirus on kurittanut Suomen naisten jääkiekkomaajoukkuetta Milanon olympiaturnauksen alla. Naisleijonien oli määrä avata olympiaturnaus tänään torstaina Kanadaa vastaan, mutta ottelua päädyttiin siirtämään Suomen norokurimuksessa viikolla eteenpäin.
Ruotsin olympiakomitean joukkueenjohtaja Fredrik Joulamo kertoi keskiviikkona Aftonbladetin mukaan, että ainakin Ranskan ja Yhdysvaltojen joukkueissa olisi myös tartuntoja.
Pärmäkoski tuumii, että kisakylissä liikkuu runsaasti tauteja, kun paikalle tulee paljon urheilijoita eri puolilta maailmaa.
Val di Fiemmessä väreili kaikuja korona-ajoista, kun hiihtäjiä haastatelleen suomalaismedian kasvoja koristivat ennalta sovitusti maskit. Hengityssuojain oli myös joka hiihtäjällä, kun mediatilaisuus käynnistyi sisätiloissa.
At this year’s Games in Italy, to avoid the risk of illness, multiple cross-country ski teams are skipping the athletes’ village and staying at private hotels — with participants even restricting contact with their own family members and loved ones who have come to watch. The couple can spend unmasked time outdoors together, she said. But inside, “we are still going to be wearing masks,” she added. “He wants to protect my health too,” Diggins said. “We’ve been waiting for 10 years to have the rest of our lives together all the time and not worrying about sickness. We can wait.” “Our top priority is making sure our athletes and staff stay healthy for the entirety of the Games,” Bourne said. “It’s also great to have all of our team together in one place.” “We’re pretty locked down trying not to get sick,” he said. “But that’s okay — because we have six, seven of our best friends inside the bubble.” “We have closed our hotel. We don’t want outsiders in, and we don’t want infections to come in,” the doctor, Rickard Noberius, told the newspaper. “So, it’s just us and the family who run the hotel — and they have been given strict restrictions as well.”

Archana Koirala, a paediatrician and infectious diseases specialist from the National Centre for Immunisation Research and Surveillance, said COVID-19 pandemic lockdowns and social distancing rules were a factor in the 2024–25 spike.
“The bacteria is spread similarly to how viruses are spread, and so if you restrict people from coming into contact with each other, the bacteria is restricted in its spread as well,” she said.
“Immunised children didn’t get exposed to that usual kind of circulation … and so they didn’t get that immune boost.
“We saw a decline in coverage across Australia, and so what happens is that those who are vaccinated, their immunity waned … and a proportion didn’t get their vaccines in time.

sure, we were more channeling something we remember bushfire survivors doing (but according to some article we can’t seem to find again), where when all is lost what else is there to do but laugh
like addressing climate change though, we do wonder if there is some kind of way to prevent these kinds of bad shit
hey good news, alarmist is wrong, there are not 788657867364790503552363213932185062295135977687173263294742533244359449963403342920304284011984623904177212138919638830257642790242637105061926624952829931113462857270763317237396988943922445621451664240254033291864131227428294853277524242407573903240321257405579568660226031904170324062351700858796178922222789623703897374720000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 positive tests for latent tuberculosis, and there’s low risk to public

In November last year Canada lost its measles elimination status after a sustained period of community transmission. The UK lost its just last week and the same declaration is expected for the United States later this month as the country battles a surge in infections, with cases increasing almost ten fold in a year. The vast majority of these cases were in unvaccinated children.
seems sus’ that they’re
still considered clean
Today, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) confirmed 66 new US measles infections, raising the country’s 2026 total to 982, while South Carolina’s 2025-26 outbreak grew by 11 cases, to 973 total. In its weekly update, the CDC said 976 of the US cases were in 26 states, while six are related to international travel. The agency also confirmed seven new outbreaks in 2026, compared with 49 that began in 2025. Of the 982 cases so far this year, 870 (89%) are tied to an outbreak, which the CDC defines as three or more related cases. The vast majority (92%) of those are tied to outbreaks that began in 2025 and have continued into this year. Last year, the country saw 2,281 measles cases, the most in several decades, but the United States is on track to easily surpass that later this year.
so yes things can improve so we should seek to improve them
would just note that this glosses over relevant matter, increasing its resemblance to rage bait
how come vaccination against ACWY is more common
how did B become the most common form
why didn’t they just roll out B with ACWY then
don’t know the fella but fair concern
woohoo letitrip
