    You're neither pretty or sure Margret.

    ‘Edge of a global recession’: IMF slashes world economic forecast again


    Those downturns, combined with the ongoing war in Ukraine, inflation surging faster than expected, and tighter monetary policy around the world have continued to slam the already fragile global economy, it said.

    Analysis: Monkeypox going through "accelerated evolution," mutation rate "6-12 times higher than expected" | The "unprecedented speed of new infections could suggest that something may have changed about how the virus infects its hosts"

  13. If this "new strain" exists, which I highly doubt, it was absolutely engineered in a level 3 bioweapons lab. The chances of a virus gaining function naturally is literally in the hundreds of billions. It would be like winning the Powerball lottery 100 consecutive times in a row. Next to impossible.
  14. carbon output goes up or down in lock step with economic activity.

    economic collapse will reduce carbon output.

    economic prolapse may even reverse the human-induced climate change.

    BRACE THE PROLAPSE.

    Well, yeah. The non-novel monkeypox virus only has a 17% case fatality rate. So if this spooky, deadly, horrific strain is threating the entire planet and life as we know it, it would have to be a manufactured novel strain which was engineered in a lab to provide gain of function.
