And here in the US, I’ve also got to worry about the tariff shortages 🙃

It won’t be a pandemic. The rest of the world isn’t stupid enough to appoint an antivaxer as secretary of health.
When the measles get to out-evolve the vaccine in the US petridish, shit could get nasty.
Pandemics don’t have to be global. It’s just over a large area.
WHO defines it as “an epidemic occurring worldwide, or over a very wide area, crossing international boundaries…”
usually the definition of pandemic at least says it has to be multiple continents
It usually doesn’t say it has to be, it just uses multiple continents as an example of a large geographic area. Of course, there are multiple different definitions out there.
Regardless, it’s silly to assume the virus would stay in the US.
I’m actually pretty sure it doesn’t say it has to be
Start accepting us refugees and I’ll be happy to hear that 😅

I’m pretty sure a good many refugees run away from oppressive regimes
You are right, I did a stupid.
Hang on, what’s going on over there?
Lots of nurgle cultist
They’re having both a bird flu & measles problem at the same time and burying their heads in the sand about it.
Oh and they fired a load of people doing Ebola research
And this one isn’t strictly a pandemic, but the USA is currently basically carpet bombing parts of Mexico (with their consent) to prevent the northward progression of screwworms—which are even worse than you’re currently imagining.
I’ve probably forgotten something else biological that mother nature is currently doing to indicate her displeasure in the politically driven ignorance they’ve got going on over there.
I recall a story, can’t remember where I read it, where a creator deity demonstrates their displeasure with the leader’s treatment of a downtrodden minority by sending a large number of “plagues”. I remember there was a plague of flies, all the livestock started dying of sudden disease, and an epidemic of boils broke out… Hmm… If only the US were filled with people who believed in the literal interpretation of certain old books…
Not looking forward to the screw worms
You know it’s bad if any foreign country is asking the USA to send military planes…

And said dementia-addled megalomaniac started a trade war with the entire fucking world, so now we won’t have groceries soon
And demolishing all science and public health related institutions so any kind of outbreak will run free with no barriers.
Yep! Gotta love 'murica! Land of the stupid, apparently
Unless their goal is to kill people.
Sure, but was the voters’ goal suicide?
They didn’t really think that far ahead, their primary concern was brown and trans people bad.
Here I am sitting in bed with covid. First time ever having it.
Pff, that is so 2020
