chat, you have to tell me this is alarmism or clickbait or something 
This is a bit alarmist but it is also real, they are talking about HMPV its like a different version of RSV I think. I think this article explains it a bit more. https://health.ucdavis.edu/news/headlines/a-little-known-respiratory-virus-human-metapneumovirus-surging-in-northern-california/2026/03
Young children, older adults and people with weakened immune systems face the greatest risk of serious illness
If you've been getting Covid, that's you. Wear a mask. This isn't rocket science, it's basic math. More vulnerable people leads to more infections, more infections leads to more opportunities to spread to vulnerable people, etc, etc. It's a feedback loop and it's leading to an increase in the spread of freaking everything. 
I saw human metapneumo plenty of times when I worked pediatrics, no idea why its coming up now. We had a big wave a couple years ago too.
Its little known to like the regular public but thats cause its like RSV for healthy adults - you get an annoying cough and feel vaguely bad for a while. It hits kids and elderly hard, of course, and anyone immunocompromised. The pneumo part is because it often leads to secondary bacterial pneumonia.
Im a little surprised its being reported on at all tbh
I caught a particularly bad strain once when I worked on an Infectious Diseases ward. Way before COVID19, we had a suspect TB case that turned out just to be HMPV in a traveler. The senior registrar was like "it's fine we can stop all mask precautions it's just human meta pneumo virus!", a week later there was barely any doctors, nurses or allied health left to turn up. I've only ever been that sick when I've had covid19 or influenza.
Hey remember just before Covid trump assassinated Soleimani. Is there a repeat of 2020 coming up? These writers need to get some new ideas
Human metapneumo? I dont know how "new" it is but there was a wave of it a couple years ago.
I found a YouTube link in your post. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Breadtube if it didn't suck.
Post videos you genuinely enjoy and want to share, duh. Celebrate the diversity of interests shared by chapochatters by posting a deep dive into Venetian kelp farming, I dunno. Also media criticism, bite-sized versions of left-wing theory, all the stuff you expected. But I am curious about that kelp farming thing now that you mentioned it.
Low effort / spam videos might be removed, especially weeb content.
There is a cytube that you can paste videos into and watch with whoever happens to be around. It's open submission unless there's something important to commandeer it with at the time.
A weekly watch party happens every Saturday (Sunday down under), with video nominations Saturday-Monday, voting Monday-Thursday. See the pin for whatever stage it's currently in.
