You have to isolate it from a mold that you have to cultivate and it costs millions of dollars for that process to happen' --- Quote from: otto-san on January 16, 2017, 05:23:19 PM ---i mean, again, this isn't really a new thing, and the CDC has a sample that they can experiment with, and they'll probably get a sample of any subsequent mutations plus that's just speculation. it's really most likely not a big deal, we've dealt with a lot of health scares in the past few years and they all end up fine. just stay calm and careful as usual and wait to see what happens. --- End quote --- yeah i would start freaking out if 5 people were infected with it. |
