THE HAND IS QUICKER THAN THE EYE

I wonder how long ago i wrote about MISDIRECTION. About things like DECEPTION, DISTRACTION, DISSIPATION. Or maybe it helps to have a little PARANOIA every now and then….
First PANDEMIC…forget AVIAN FLU. PANDEMIC can mean any “bug” that is easily transmissible. THE GREAT FLU EPIDEMIC of 1916-1919 was an epidemic. It took YEARS to circle the globe. More men died in the TRENCHES from the FLU than from guns, bombs, or gas.
OKAY PEOPLE…PANDEMIC only became a WORD that had any value within the past 20 years when AIR TRAVEL became pervasive.
Let me make this VERY SIMPLE…the ANCIENT WAY to stop an EPIDEMIC is to QUARANTINE…close off a ship or a city. Do not allow anyone to have any contact with anyone who MIGHT have the disease. The key here is MIGHT. Take no chances. Period. Then burn everything.
But let’s say we have a bug that spreads real fast. Someone gets to LAX….the MAIN AIRPORT IN LOS ANGELES…..
Coughing, a little sweaty. Has to walk through three areas to get to his/her gate. Infects people going to HAWAII….MIAMI…CHICAGO….MANILLA… TOKYO and MEXICO CITY. They get on their full 747 and head straight to NEW YORK…. Seven hours later…stiff and achy he/she gets off the 747 and goes two concourses over to catch a quick jump to BOSTON. In Boston goes home in time to catch spouse and 2 kids before spouse goes to work…kids go to school.
5 pm….spouse finds COMATOSE significant other…go to hospital…
Now it may only be 20 hours since Carrier#1 walked through LAX…contagious…COUGHING….and only one person headed for Miami, Manilla, Hawaii or Tokyo needs to “pick” it up. By the time their flights landed they were now contagious and spread it though the airports they landed in.
But it may take another 24 hours for any blood, sputum, spinal fluid cultures to show a “bacteria”. If in that 24 hours Carrier#1 died they will do an autopsy…and find a WORST CASE SCENARIO….a DEADLY HIGHLY CONTAGIOUS PATHOGEN is LOOSE… and it is too late…it is now GLOBAL…From Manilla, Hawaii and Tokyo it has covered all of ASIA and AUSTRALIA/NEW ZEALAND….From Mexico City and Miami it has gone to South and Central America….From New York and Boston…all of North America and Europe. And now flights are coming back to America with the PATHOGEN and thousands of CARRIERS just beginning to feel bad.
Too late to ISOLATE…to QUARANTEEN….in 72 hours it is in every city in AMERICA over 50,000 in population and spreads as panic just begins.
I have read where estimates have placed 80% of the world’s population dead in 7 days for any SUPER PATHOGEN.
Scripture SAYS go into your HIDDEN ROOMS…and wait… 10 days…20 days…does it matter…
just thinking out loud
