There was an older M. Night Shyamalan film called The Happening where instead of a virus from fauna, e.g., animals or insects, it came from flora, e.g., trees and plants. It's one of those M. Night Shyamalan films where you think you may not like it, but ends up being a good story.

Though as something playful, what would you like to see next as a source for a virus or bacteria which is lethal to our species? Though I love these 'til the end of the universe, it would be a cruel joke if kittens and/or puppies carried the next pandemic. How would we cope having to distance ourselves from those adorable furry beings!

Hantavirus is old news though

Yes. Just thinking about what will emerge and surprise us and which has to do with something like a pandemic. Not trying to be dooms-pondering. Just out of a curiosity.

Heartworms can be transferred to humans. Imagine if they could actually thrive and reproduce within us? The symptoms wouldn't be known until it was too late.

Just imagine... Let's make it even stranger: A single fruit fly which carries with it a new unknown disease which had emerged within its tiny body due to where it often lands in and eats from. Then, it breeds.



Yikes! Then it all begins.

Also, super strong out of this world bird flu epidemic because some foreigners started eating bald eagles.
America ready to fuck shit up.

Hah! I read your comment while imagining those bald eagle screeching sounds that often accompany America made product ads.

oh no 10 ppl in usa might get hantavirus instead of the average 5

lets lock down nation instead of teaching people to stay away from rat feces or refrain from being intimate with people that hang around rodents

i never even seen a wild rat or mouse in my lyfe, i guess its difficult for some ppl to not leave rotten food laying around in their cars or house?
