Someone is going to make so much money selling iron lungs when they roll out polio 2.0 in a couple of years.
Ooh, maybe we can have a run of drug resistant typhoid or whooping cough while we’re at it.
Have we ever had a good ebola outbreak in the US?

I had never heard that expression before and had to look it up. Very interesting but they’ve been obsolete for decades now.
The procedure since the 1960s has been to delivery positive pressure ventilation to expand the lungs via tracheotomy, rather than housing the patient in the irong lung (negative pressure chamber).
Did get me reading about Paul Alexander too. The man who used an iron lung for 70 odd years, achieving a degree and a career as an attorney and author. Worth a read!
Not trying to prove you wrong. Just wanted to share info on the subject. Thanks for the comment. Sent me down a rabbit hole!
I ain’t mad. You came back with real information. I was just snarking and hyperbolizing about what we have coming to us for letting these men gain control.
Christ.
Seriously, how are any of these actions any different than what Putin would order if he could?
