I remember not that long ago hearing about a spread of a new disease spreading across a nation. I said "Ah, it’s fine. It’ll be contained, and nobody will even remember it…
Yes, actually. This specific bacteria thrives at 95f when cultured in labs.
It’s a bacteria that is able to live inside humans, after all.
Microbes also evolve faster than humans. Meaning they’ll adapt to higher temperatures faster than our body temperature will. Making humans more susceptible to bacteria like this one, as climate change continues.

8 months later the world was shut down.
Except these bacteria are nothing new.
But they may thrive more at higher global temperatures.
They may also not survive as well.
Ia there evidence they will thrive more at higher temperatures? Or are we just trying to find things to be negative about?

What is new is that the bacteria is becoming more predominate.
Would you like some extra mongering with your fear today?
Okay sir…tell me when…
Texas has had these for a while, similar fearmongering then too
