Title: The next virus
Post by: BikerDude on January 02, 2015, 08:44:09 AM
A virus that makes you walk like a chicken. Stooped over.
Seriously.
Chikungunya.
And it's already in the US. Mostly in South America and now in Florida and the gulf coast. Now it's moved all over. New York state had 500 cases.
No cure. Bad shit man.

definitely going to keep my eye open for this one.  I live on the gulf coast (south east texas, bayou and cajun country still) and we deal with plenty of west nile every year.

a real bummer, and hopefully not more than soon.

The last time I went out in public, I caught a cold that has lasted 2 weeks.  More reason to just stay home and drink beer.  Fuck socializing, unless it's with hot women.  ;-)
