I'm coming out of private because this hantavirus thing is getting ridiculous. Before I explain the facts of the virus, here's why you should listen to me: Unlike most of the people on my feed, I am a Chemical, Biological, Radiological, and Nuclear defense officer. My job is to ensure that large, closely-packed groups of people are not infected by diseases both endemic to the environment and manufactured by an enemy.
Andes hantavirus has an extremely low transmissibility rate. You need to be in prolonged, close contact with someone to catch it. Transmission between humans is documented but so rare that it is considered exceptional. This is not COVID (for example, the common cold is a type of coronavirus).
The 40% mortality rate figure is also a distortion of reality. The disease is treatable and anywhere with an adequate hospital can save you – rates are between 1-15%. This 40% rate is because Andean hantavirus is endemic to a region with very poor access to medical care. If you live in a developed country, you have nothing to worry about. (cdc.gov/hantavirus/abo…)
The chances of the virus mutating to become more infectious are low, but not impossible. If it does become more infectious, it will also become less lethal. This is a basic, natural evolutionary tradeoff to ensure the virus's propagation.
Of seven suspected (two confirmed) cases, three have already died. Based on the case timeline, they likely contracted the disease in Argentina before boarding (they boarded on April 1 and first showed symptoms on April 6 – the virus takes at least one week to show symptoms). That leaves four people who could possibly transmit the virus, all of whom are hospitalized. (who.int/emergencies/di…)
The flight attendant had minimal if any contact with the infected passenger who was removed and isolated before the plane took off. Her symptoms also onset far too early to be related to this case. She has already tested negative for hantavirus.
If you have questions I'm happy to answer, but there is genuinely no threat to public health from this outbreak on a cruise ship. Don't fall for people fearmongering a pandemic for engagement money.

Shocking story today from Christopher Biggins @onebiggins when his electric Fiat car just stopped with no warning on a busy road. And whatever caused the electric car to suddenly stop also rendered him unable to leave the vehicle as the doors and windows wouldn't open.
The car was fully charged that morning and Fiat have no explanation.
Biggins 'phoned the RAC who said it could take 6 hours to attend even after he explained he was an elderly gentleman who needed his medication which was at home. The police refused to attend despite the danger posed by the Fiat being immobile in the middle of a busy road with traffic thundering past.
Eventually and after a traumatic wait in the vehicle, the car door finally opened and Biggins managed to walk free unharmed.
Biggins is now looking to get rid of his electric car. And I don't blame him one bit. What a dreadful experience. 😱

@PolitlcsUK British people, I’m afraid you really might have a dictator in your hands

I take responsibility from the same people who spent months calling voters stupid, racist or misinformed for warning this would happen.
Labour didn’t lose because the public doesn’t understand
They lost because people are broke, angry, unsafe, overtaxed and completely ignored.
The political class keeps gaslighting the country, then acts shocked when the country punches back.

@PolitlcsUK Clinging on ... like shit to a blanket

If Starmer does not resign after this, then we have a dictator on our hands.

@Fox_Claire He is the chaos 😂 him, and his deranged set of ministers @LabourParty
How is he so deluded 🫨

"I am not going to plunge the country into chaos" by walking away. Too late Keir. You already have. The country has been been plunged into chaos with you at helm, right from start. And voters aren't having it.
Alan D Miller@alanvibe
‘Im not going to plunge the country into chaos’ by walking away @Keir_Starmer You’ve plunged Britain in to chaos through terrible economic & tax measures, sneering smears & treatment of the Public Time for real change!

@HugoGye @theipaper Oh do give over. Labour are getting a deserved spanking today from the British voters.
Who are not going to vote to rejoin the EU.
FGS start listening to actual real people, and not your dinner party sect.
English
But be careful what you wish for
Public support for rejoining the EU could plummet once the realities of that process become better understood

🚨📝 NEW COLUMN
Like it or not, the next big question in British politics will be whether to rejoin the EU
65% of Labour supporters want to go back in - and 79% of Greens (plus even one in five Reform voters!)
It's a matter of time before the parties start listening

An example of how the NHS wastes money and ignores the needs of its patients.
I’ve an appointment next week for a CT scan that I can no longer make. I call the number provided on the confirmation email and am told “I’m sorry but there are no agents available to take your call. Please call back later.”
That is the third time I have called. How many more times will people try?
There’s no online portal, the email address is “No reply”, I can’t speak to anyone. A business that operated this way would cease to be!

@LabourParty @Keir_Starmer Yep, sums it up nicely 👇
Time to go
Higgy@higgyboson
CV. Completely ruined a major 126 year old political party in less than 2 years. Became the most hated UK Prime Minister in history. Unilaterally gave away billions of £'s of taxpayers money with no accountability required from the recipients. Wrecked the economy. Failed to control mass immigration, both legal and illegal. Failed to address the problem of muslim rape gangs. Increased welfare payments to a point where benefits now cost more than the entire income tax take. Allowed weekly pro-Palestinian hate marches on our streets. Consistently referred to people with concerns about the proliferation of migrant violence as "Far Right". Promoted one of his friends to high office despite knowing he was a buddy of one of the most prolific paedophiles on the planet. Consistently worked to reverse the result of the biggest democratic vote in British history by stealth. Placed tax dodgers, fraudsters and CV fantasists in Ministerial posts. Invited a known islamist terrorist to No.10 while simultaneously banning foreign commentators from the UK for merely reporting on the border fiasco. Took two weeks to find a Royal Navy ship that actually worked. Introduced legislation that will destroy the private rental market and create hundreds of thousands of homeless families. Promised to build 1.5 million homes in five years despite everyone telling him it would be impossible. Failed to help motorists and hauliers after the rise in the price of fuel caused by the war in Iran. Continues to allow Ed Milliband to wreck the UK's energy industry with his insane Net Zero policies. Raised the minimum wage and employers National Insurance contributions leading to thousands of job losses and businesses folding. Introduced VAT to private school fees leading to many excellent seats of learning closing their doors. Consistently refused to answer questions during the session in the parliamentary week set aside for this specific purpose. Consistently failed to accept responsibility for any wrong doing, preferring to sack others instead. Alienated "working people" while claiming to be on their side. And the lies. The constant lies. Failure. Failure. And more Failure. Time to go.
