Where Will The Next Pandemic Come From? 

oh my

@@MinuteEarth Surprised pikachu face

Pikachu?

This was funny, and I did laugh.

GOTTA CATCH'EM ALL POKEMON

They're not exclusive. Off-topic, the Gates Foundation convinced the Oxford lab to collaborate with AstraZeneca instead of freely distributing the patent for its Covid vaccine, because Bill Gates loves private-public partnerships instead of just public ones. Not only did AZ's vaccine become more expensive for poorest countries, AZ made a mess of the testing and still hasn't gotten FDA approval, for instance. Another great thing Gates did was to spend half a billion dollars, that's a B, in the decade up to 2015 to develop a numerical rating system for teachers. While it was a complete failure, it'd already been widely adopted to shut down thousands of school nationwide, fire or harass untold number of teachers, and is still widely used today in teacher evaluations. Despite the bad economy, the teaching pipeline is seeing record low number of applicants, while every state is now short of teachers, which again in unprecedented. Thank you, Bill Gates. P.S. BTW, don't forget: Jeffrey Epstein.

bioLOGICAL.

@@anthonybenci9035 😂😂😂

How so?

@@anthonybenci9035 💀

factory farming is literally satan...

In the end every form of farming is a risk (at a certain extent). Since the animals there are likely to become vectors of diseases between wild animals and us.

And the insane antibiotic use within most farms which is fuelling anti microbial drug resistant pathogens. People tend to think buying free range/organic avoids both cramming and AMR issues. It usually doesn't.

But the infections do not start there. They are infected by the mice and the rats etc first.

​@@qqleq Don't think that's true for spanish flu, bird flu, equine flu and swine flu, which all seem to have originated in those farmed animals.

That’s supposed to be a big wheel. You know: One of those mostly-plastic toy tricycle things.

@@emmettturner9452 looks like the biker mice from mars :)

@@DeithW When I read the OP’s comment I expected to see a reference to Beverly Cleary’s book “The Mouse and the Motorcycle.” ;)

@@emmettturner9452 My brain saw Easy Rider motorcycles. Primed by the hot rod car. They could be Big Wheels. Or fancy European scooters.

Completely agree! Billionaire philanthropy is just a public image ploy.

I'd trust Bill Gates to fix my laptop, but not to dictate policy.

I'd not trust him if he was working alone. He pays for a lot of people in order to do what he wants to: stop plagues and such.

@@XXCoder you mean cause them?

hey bill gates, how about a waiver on patent rights for vaccines during covid? how about donating free vaccines to poorer countries? how about working with the experts at WHO instead of trying to strongarm them with your money/influence?

I was thinking the same thing.

neither. The spread of the bubonic plague was not caused or exacerbated by rats, it's just a myth.

@@gilgabro420 what was it caused by?

@@gilgabro420 Yeah, like Livi asked, if that's a myth, where did it come from? 🤨

Google says: "Specifically, historians have speculated that the fleas on rats are responsible for the estimated 25 million plague deaths between 1347 and 1351. However, a new study suggests that rats weren't the main carriers of fleas and lice that spread the plague-it was humans." Looking further the most articles are about how a computer model simulating the spread with lice on humans is closer to the real life data than the program simulating transmission from fleas on rats to humans.

We could get rid of the scientists that infect the animals in the first place.

I would expect that with MRNA vaccines we can have vaccines quickly developed for the most likely possibilities, and then quickly modify them as needed when outbreaks start. They're much faster to develop and change than traditional vaccines.

well there's nothing we can really do to get rid of those species, but usually they aren't the main problem, because most infectious specie has either already transmitted its pathogens to humans (and therefore we are immune) or they are still able to live far from humans, that's why the destruction of their habitats is the reason there's more pandemics now so the solution would be to stop polluting and invading the natural habitats of these species, and obviously improve our worldwide healthcare and sanitation systems

It's a multifactorial problem. We need to come at it from all angles. In my opinion humans encroaching on these species habitats is one of the biggest problems, as is housing large scale (read factory farming) in areas that can amplify spillover from wild to domestic animals and then potentially humans. Humans are the problem, not the animals that are merely adapting to the conditions that are forced on them.

@@petahitchens5365 Exactly. Getting rid of the animals, even if successful, is completely useless. Another species will fill the void. That's how nature works. No niche will be left unexploited.

Rabies has been almost eradicated from central Europe thanks to bait laced with rabies vaccine for foxes, who are a keystone carrier.

If you thought Republicans were hard to vaccinate, wait til you try to get a brown rat to show up to a CVS appointment.

Only some antibodies get carried through genetics, so it would be very inefficient, and also, there is a small chance that the animals with such a simple immune system develop an immunity by a vaccine.

I am not educated on the matter. But if I understand this correctly a vaccine would not work at all. This is because a vaccine is used to train your immune system to learn to identify and respond to a virus or similar virus. If your immune system however isn't even capable of responding to the virus than it will not work because it is simply incapable of doing it. Vaccines themselves are not some kind of anti-biotic or virus killer. It simply helps train your immune system to better and more efficiently respond to a virus.

We could genetically modify animals, but not a lot of people are in favour for that..

ehhh 7/10 not fuckable

Or just change the title of the video I guess Lolololol

That doesn't even make sense.

@Serenity Klein nooo >w< not the pawthogen.

Tough sell to the people in mostly developing countries who are likely to want those areas useable for at least some kind of human activity.

That's never going to happen, seeing that "we" aren't a hive mind that collectively reaches a decision and follows through on it. Different people are doing different things and are affected by different things. You can't treat a group of people the same way you would a single person. Their characteristics and behaviors are completely different.

Yeah, why spread out? Just keep cramming more and more into already overcrowded cities. It's not like there are any negative effects from that approach...

That was the goal n expected.

It was originally "Where will the next pandemic come from".

We should nuke them. Not like there's anyone of any value there.

Oh they changed it :(

For real. Ebola wasn't that long ago,.

​@@LimeyLassen IIRC Ebola was wide spread in Africa, but didn't really effect the rest of the world. And let's be honest: Nobody gives a rats ass about Africa if they can't either enslave them or exploit them.

Thank fully they didnt use 2 minutes Earth.

People have talked about that, yeah.

Its actually happened before, yeah. In Western-Europe rabies was almost entirely eliminated due a campaign that involved oral vaccines left behind in carrion, which foxes (the main scource of rabies in Europe) would then eat.

@@megadracosaurus oh! that’s cool, ty for telling me

@@StarLupus Your welcome!

We didnt want to be accused of pandering...

Hey me

As dumb as their audience is, why would they need to.

Uranus.

not really

Not in vegeterian countries. Rats are however common in countries like India. Still they dont cause much trouble except to create holes where life once existed. Huge rats are found in India. Some are big like smaller rabbits or large squirrels..

I was just thinking this!

​@@RosheenQuynhWhen I was little I saw rats babies and I have not forgotten that scene..there were too many rat babies that I saw upclose and cudnt stand that feeling of seeing something reddish wettish thing. I cannot see a fresh new flesh uncovered n without a cloth..it makes me feel very I cant explain n stand kind of feeling..I have never liked rats after that. My mother killed rats bravely and I feared them all my life.

Humans gave pigs Influenza in the 90s. Pigs gave us a 3-species virus in turn. Many of these variants have been mutating wildly since then on every farm of the planet, creating several swine flu outbreaks. It's a matter of time until a virus like A(H1N1), H5N8 or H7N9 ends up becoming another pandemic, one that will make COVID look like child's play. But hey, at least we have bacon, am I right?

​@@WeissM89Thats weird. Did humans give influenza to pigs? Why and how? I wud think that animals due to them not bathing often were unclean so harbored germs while humans took bath regularly so not that problem causing to anyone. I have not seen research happening on humans who didnt take bath for longer n then they were made to interact with either humans or animals to see if any disease wud spread? Worth reaearching if humans too if unclean for longer cud spread germs or smaller particles to animals or others...suggesting that bath is all what animals and birds too need daily.

Like a Chinese bio lab

Like 95% of the farms on the planet.

Panaroma?

@@CaptainvonDore Pandemic

@@jellycat5918 oh. OK.

It's on our doorstep. There's an avian flu wiping out chickens, ducks, geese, etc. It's beginning to affect the poultry industry, so it's only a matter of time.

I thought mosquitoes, but they changed the title, so... your answer doesn't make sense anymore. lol :-)

@@PieterPatrick I really hate it when channels change the titles of their video. But the new one does make more sense with the video.

HIV, over 30 million deaths. No vaccine yet. Vaccines are not the solution, just a bandaid.

It being sponsored by bill Gates is how you know it's propaganda.

+1 for Bill

Crows may do that too. I see many crows whereever I go.

One time, someone told me that Turkey kept so many cats to avoid rats..as if cats wont carry any diseases. That doesnt seem to me a nice way to keep something at bay by having some opponent closer. We can do that with people not animals..like keep closer the enemy of the enemy to make easier the hop to real enemy or create a safe barrier from real enemy.

Mongoose were kept close to keep snakes away but what cud be the reason to have stray dogs or cats? What kind of pandemic or epidemic they avoid?

At least there's Corbevax now, an open-source vaccine developed at Texas Children's Hospital in Houston. Entirely funded by charity and private investment by drug companies in poorer nations. It's now the number one vaccine in India and Indonesia. I'd love to have a dose, but it's not approved in the US even though some of the trials were done here. Elana Bottazzi and Peter Hotez have a bit of Nobel Prize buzz around them.

Yes

Fort Detrick is where 👑🦠 really came from.

First of all the survival rate of covid is 99.7% not 99.9%. Second, do want to kill 24 million people?

You just described animal agriculture.

@@WeissM89 Agriculture in general, surely? Sounds like invasive weeds, too

I agree they should have covered this hypothesis but you are kinda presenting it as something with direct evidence.

@@genericjoe4082 There is direct evidence.

@@emmettturner9452 like?

@@emmettturner9452 no direct evidence at all. China hasn't released any and probably won't ever release any to not make themselves look bad, so we will never know if its true or not.
