That's right, the “Nightmare Bacteria,” according to the Center for Disease Control, has claimed the lives of roughly 23,000 people and is found in 34 states.

"This is a particularly rough one,” Dr. Wheeler said. “It's been passed around the world pretty quickly and we've in fact had a case here in Arkansas."

And it most likely made its way to the states from people traveling abroad to countries like India, Mexico or Brazil.

"There are not any common effective antibiotics that can be used to treat it so it is the ultimate nightmare," Dr. Wheeler said.

Obviously the only solution is more thoughts and prayers while cutting health care and torpedoing medical research.

Nah, the solution is free healthcare and more free antibiotics for third-world people too stupid to use them properly.

Drug-resistant “superbugs” are now found virtually everywhere. They’ve developed as people pop antibiotics to treat colds, the flu, ear infections and various other ills caused by viruses and fungi that are not affected by the drugs. They grow in farm animals fed antibiotics not to treat disease, but to make them grow fatter and faster.

We all are going to die eventually so AI and robots can take over.

They won’t need us around once they get going.

Coming to a Tyson pig near you

Worry grows as new pig virus poses possible threat to humans

The spread of a potentially dangerous cross-species virus is always cause for concern, and now a new one has just emerged.

Ebola, bird flu and swine flu are just some of the biggest cross-species viruses to make headlines over the past few decades sparking fears that they could be the instigator of a catastrophic worldwide pandemic which, thankfully, has so far failed to come.

But a recently identified pig virus is once again making researchers concerned after finding that it can readily find its way into lab-cultured cells of people and other species.

In a paper published to PNAS, a team from Ohio State University and Utrecht University in the Netherlands detailed its findings on the virus identified as porcine deltacoronavirus.

I’m still waiting to die from:

Trump getting elected
Trump authorizing Dakota pipeline
Trump pulling out of Paris Climate agreement
Trump creating a nuclear war with NoKo
Trump tax cuts
Trump nominating Gorsuch
Russian collusion
Bombing Syria
Cutting regulations
Travel ban
Moving the embassy to Jerusalem
Scott Pruitt’s EPA appt

Ya know, Democrats said we are all going to die because of ‘muh Trump’

Also, Ebola is making another comeback. Slowly working it’s way up through Central America.
