So close to us and yet so far

Cats can catch the bird flu, just like human beings (while dogs seemingly can't)...They had already their own AIDS, the FIV, and now this. They die from H5N1 virus infection in about 6 days.

We definitely have many curses in common!

Meanwhile the chikungunya fever spreads itself in La Réunion.

Can you tell I'm in a dark mood tonight?

Actually when you think of all the people who actually die from the regular flu every bloody year the whole thing seems just over the top.

I just thought it was intriguing that cats and human beings share so many virus...I guess Lovecraft would have been surprised!
