i always laugh when false color SEMs are slapped on as a background for scientific journalism cuz medical cases don't really have big dramatic imagery

They should put some pictures of teratomas or something with the teeth and the hair

Which is weird, because we have some VERY dramatic pictures of the plague. Most of them in black and white, thankfully.

IIRC people die from plague every year

[-] [email protected] 27 points 3 days ago

Yep, and every time people post about it like it's something new, and every time people inform them that it happens every year.

hmm... could this be politicized news? 🤔

Meanwhile, an estimated 15k+ have died of Covid-19 so far this year.

He died with the plague. It could have been anything that killed him, like a vaccine. The plague is no worse than a flu.
