Remember always have a positive attitude about starving to death. If you don't than you won't have a fun time starving to death
 
I'm SHOCKED that there are more comments on "how do I get laid" then that of a real issue..........

Fuck it I say we just nuke Florida and be done with the damn Zika.

Bee lives matter

I know you're making a joke and it's a decently clever one. I give it a 6/10.

But fuck yeah bees matter. We've been worried about colony collapse for a couple years now and now we are actively decimating millions of bees. This is a bad thing.
 
shoot first ask questions later. the american way.

also zika is bullshit. anybody still worried about sars or swine flu?

Well I mean you kinda gotta deal with the crisis you have rather than the crisis you might have some day. Bee die off in Carolina due to mosquito spraying is a regional and temporary hit to the bee population there. It has nothing to do with colony collapse syndrome and if what you are suggesting is true then those bees were doomed anyway might as well protect some humans from zika if you can.

Nope. The reason people are so concerned about bee's is because they are basically responsible for all of the food you eat every day. All of a sudden a "regional problem" become a global problem real quick.

got any sources on that theory dr nye?

how would wiping out millions of a rapidly dying species not have any effect?
 
Im torn on this. On the one hand Im terrified of bees but on the other I fucking HATE the hysteria surrounding these fucking diseases...We're all going to die from bird flu, swine flu, mad cow, zika, anthrax, and all that.

Hide inside everyone!

it was half joke half serious. a hybrid if you will
 
Anybody who is legitimatly concerned about the Zika virus is fucking stupid. Whatever entity that carried out the spraying should be criminaly charged.
 
The CDC seemed pretty concerned about Zika but they also have a history of fear-mongering and lying when it comes to Lyme disease. Actually, according to them, Lyme is hard to catch and easy to treat, which isn't the case when you read almost every peer reviewed randomized double blind study, case report and the surveillance data on it.
 
I mean, the news has to keep peoples attention and for the most part people don't know shit about their own health. The CDC isn't a fear mongering organization, they have a whole Lyme page that's got numbers and statistics that you can interpret yourself. And if you can't do that they have an FAQ that seems pretty good from the couple of questions I read.

I don't know why everyone gives the CDC a bad rep. Their job is to put out statements backed b current scientific understanding of something and news people just take soundbites and portions of stuff. Nobody actually goes to the CDC website I bet, they just watch TV.

Haha the cdc is a corrupt, for-profit corporation. They are in dun and Bradstreet database. They claim ingesting cannabis and raw milk from a cow is illegal.

Like I said, the CDC, NIH, IDSA bankrolled finite companies to allocate research to be used for future patents on strains of Borrelia and patents on the diagnostics. When we restrict independent, transparent research we merely set ourselves up for a consortium on a product. So when we look at infections such as Borrelia Complex we see that scientists have withheld their findings in order to profit off of future patents and in the case of the 1994 diagnostic standard change, the CDC pushed bogus Dead borne diagnostics for profit. So in regards to Borrelia Burgdorferi, the common person and the doctors rely on unsubstantial and outdated research; not only that but the diagnostics are purposely inaccurate. Moreover, independent researchers simply do not have the funds to conduct large randomized double blind studies on Lyme disease persistence because the CDC does not want this to be true. Of course there are over 700 peer reviewed studies that depict its persistence but the CDC and other organizations seem to call these studies quackery.

So, yes the CDC is a 'for' profit organization that falsified diagnostics and lied about the true Borrelia Burgdorferi epidemic. They changed the diagnostic result standards (1994 case definition) and made Lyme largely undetectable, knowing that many people tested negative when they were positive. This was done for the bogus Lyme vaccine and all of its colludes which caused debilitating side effects because they didn't realize that the Lyme bacteria was a relapsing organism. The CDC is largely corrupt, at least when it comes to Lyme disease or Borrelia Burgdorferi.

You didn't know that Raw milk contains Q-fever and that everyone dies when they drink it?
 
This guy seems to have a lot of sound evidence for his case, I'll have to read the studies but he makes a lot of sense. He does go off on an anti-vaccine rant at the end and he does provide sources for his claims but he also is biased in the way he presents it. Not all vaccines, as a matter of fact, most vaccines are safe and effective. However, there is a historical obfuscation of vaccines, many of which have caused detrimental health effects.
