    Stop spreading panic.

    While NWS can infect humans—and those cases are grisly—it is relatively rare.

    The US has halted imports of cattle, bison, and horses from Mexico to try to keep the parasite out. Officials have also set up nearly 8,000 traps across Texas, Arizona, and New Mexico. Among 13,000 screening samples, so far, none have turned up NWS.

      Maybe he meant end of cooperation because in times past, we would have unified against this threat and kept it at bay, but now we’re all fucked and everything is on fire so nobody has time to deal with the situation?

        It’s only sarcasm because he said, “It’s so great to”. This means OP believes the other portion of the comment, but doesn’t actually believe it’s great.

        It’s a doomer karma farming comment with no substance.
