Seems the fear of disease is easily manipulated by the media. I mean there are tides of very nasty disease pouring across our borders and we hear almost nothing about it. There are bugs introduced here already that make mpox look as spooky as an acne outbreak. But where is the fear? That there is practically none tells us the degree of disinformation the wide public operates under with our "free press". So if fear porn is so effective and conservative pundits really want those borders closed, why in blazes don't they hammer the imported disease message home with every utterance?
