I wonder if humanity could create a pandemic to wipe most of us out.
Something engineered, fiction would have us believe its not too hard if you have the resources.

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.
we mean, humans create humans
Wait you mean living breathing juvenile humans have intrinsic value as much as other humans and they aren’t just test candidates and future labour¿

nah it’ll never catch on

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.”

In utero SARS-CoV-2 exposure was tied to significantly larger cortical gray matter and left hippocampal volumes and significantly smaller subcortical gray matter and white matter volumes. In unadjusted analyses at 2 years, 14% of toddlers in the prepandemic group were at high risk for developmental delays on the BSID-III, in contrast to 51.6% in the COVID-19 group.

Disease evolution is interesting.
For all our technology it seems we barely keep even.
Even if vaccines did cause autism its a small price for humans not dying in the millions for preventable illness

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.

We’ll all be rooned.
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.

oh oh it must be the ivermectin, people stopped taking it because COVID is over, people used to take it like lollies, even the President of the USSA was selling it
GPs tend not to prescribe ivermectin first, because, although it is easier to use, it is not considered more effective, and it is expensive.
no wait oh they mention something else
restrictions on socialising during the pandemic led to a decrease
oh could it be… when they tell people that it’s not important to prevent disease, then people stop doing the right thing trying to prevent disease, and spread it instead
