Viruses

[Yasyass]

Almost every year a new virus comes along same panic I alwaz worry esp if have hosp apt dentists etc also kids at school I hope this new disease will be stopped and not spread laws should be made about the consequences of eating dif animals then things wouldn’t get out of hand we cannot run away from illnesses but we can try prevent as the saying goes prevention better than cure

There is a bigger problem. The world is massively over populated and all these people need feeding. Hence we get deforestation, diseases springing up, etc. The world must limit families to two children with severe penalties for fathering or bearing a third. I believe there is a limited window for the world to save itself!

Morning Heythrop

The Chinese did try to control their population with the one child policy. If you see the news clips currently say at an Airport you may notice there is only one child with each family !!

I agree about the population in the past it was controlled by War and outbreaks of Spanish Flu etc.

There are unfortunately certain groups who cannot grasp this simple fact. It would not be PC to say which but we know who they are!

I have to agree with you and Prada. It never fails to get me growling when I hear the diametrically opposed 'expert guidance' trotted out - usually during some crisis like the one we may be facing (novel coronavirus). grrrrrrrrr!

I don’t think it’s because of big families if money was spend wisely on important issues esp healthcare diets cleanliness then we probably wouldn’t have these diseases in the first place money should be spend on trying to cure the heart diseases cancers and even the flu that is still around

Big families on a overcrowded planet are just being totally inconsiderate! Areas of the UK are near permanent gridlock; London, M25, etc. Also many times viruses originate where there are overcrowded conditions. People have to accept the hard truth. Too many think it more important to grow the economy than save the planet!
