Chikungunya

[MrX]

New tropical disease, coming to America within months.

Can we fight something we can't pronounce?

Anyway, sounds like loads of fun. Long-lasting severe joint pain. No vaccine. No treatment.

Chikungunya.

I am personally challenging these muthafukkin mosquitoes to pay me a visit in November, in Saskatchewan.

We'll see who gets the fukkin joint pain.

 

[Mudcat]

Imagine getting a dose of that.

Quite the fine how-do-you-do?

 

[Tron]

Should I be like Killer Bees worried about this or just regular worried about this?

Daffy, you ever seen killer bees in Miami?

 

[Tron]

If that was a serious question, no.

 

[betplom]

If that was a serious question, no.

You make it sound like I joke around alot!

Yeah was a serious question, because I remember from years back scientists predicting the danger these bees presented in the southern USA.

Apparently y'all were supposed to be over run with African bees by now.

Just wondering how it played out after the doomsday predictions.

Yeah when I did the Killer Bees thing in post #9 I was thinging the whole anxiety over something that was not nearly as bad as was initially hyped.
