Seeing a marburg virus outbreak in 2024 on the heels of a global coronavirus pandemic reminds me of reading a seanan mcguire interview in 2012ish where she discussed how our societal approach to quarantine is a joke & the individual desire for freedom & autonomy over safety gets people killed. I have to wonder what going through the early ‘20s as someone well educated in viral mutations and infection vectors must’ve been like. Prophets screaming from a crumbling parapet
I am in actual hell.
