# Life in the Hotspots Our erstwhile *Experts* love [pumping up](https://youtu.be/3Y71iDvCYXA) the fear factor. It’s a simple equation: Fear-mongering = $ squared Worked [spectacularly](https://science.sciencemag.org/content/333/6047/news-summaries) well with the 911 Anthrax [lab-escape](https://www.nytimes.com/2009/01/04/us/04anthrax.html) - now look what we’ve got - Covid-19! - the fear-monger’s wet-dream... In the throes of manifesting that spank-bank imaging, our heroes are still not satiated. They dream of more perversions... *bigger ones*: *This pandemic has been very severe*, Mike Ryan huffs, reaches for the tissue box - *But this is not necessarily [the big one](https://www.newsweek.com/beijing-must-come-clean-about-covid-19-origins-opinion-1563524)*. Back in the *real world* for a minute, how likely are zoonotic crossover events, in fact? According to THE Data? I'll examine that data soon, but Growing up in a country town, with a father who liked hunting-shooting-fishing, i did a lot of those. We’d go on 10-day camping trips up the Lachlan River. Shooting pigs (feral pests) was the main point, but also kangaroos (dog meat - human food if we didn’t get anything better), ducks (better human food), water rats (for the fur). That’s a full on *viral Hotspot* existence including *bush-meat -* literally cooked *at-the-coal-face*. Then came home to 20 backyard chooks and racing pigeons (with attendant rats and mice and bats). It was my job to clean the shit out of those sheds - *without a mask*. I fucking hated that job - breathing in shit-dust... it's definitely not good for your lungs - *do* wear a mask when you have to do it. But i don’t remember being plagued by deadly coronaviruses. Neither i, or anybody, had ever heard of them until SARS-1. Now they’re everywhere supposedly. (edit: later i learned the whole bat-virus industry was invented by an Aussie-Gov-Org, CSIRO, in Geelong. By CSIRO's *Head of Science*, to be precise, right before SARS-1 happened: Linfa Wang (aka [*The Dark Knight*](https://dulandrift.formosahut.com/books/lin-fa-wang-the-dark-knight/page/the-godfather-of-bat-viruses)) These days, i still live in the countryside, go fishing, camping, though i'm not into shooting anymore. Still got backyard chooks, & wild animals roaming around, bats galore ... so a lifetime of continuous *hotspot inhabitation*. Should that be *banned* now? In the *New Normal*? Despite the talk of bulldozers, cattle-farms, and mining causing Covid, according to Daszak et al’s actual theory - it’s people leading my kind of lifestyle who are committing the highest risk behaviour. Interestingly, so are those living indigenous lifestyles. Take my Bunun neighbour, A-de, for example - our shared farming/hunting experiences is kinda how we clicked. He’s got a living-larder of farm animals at his house - goes hunting for wild pigs and goats. Then get this - traps/eats civets! I also trap them! (released far away) Because they raid chicken sheds - for the eggs mostly, but also chickens - daily if you don’t trap them. Never saw A-de wear a mask while doing any of the above. How high risk is that?! Quickly, ban it now - for the sake of humanity! What Daszak et al are actually promoting, apart from more money for themselves, is a *War on Indigenous Lifestyle.* You'll never hear them say that directly - but that’s what it amounts to. [His solution:](https://www.telegraph.co.uk/global-health/science-and-disease/will-see-outbreaks-inevitable-warning-worlds-famous-virus-hunter/) *A modern, **well run factory farm** ...usually (has) better biosecurity, as people don’t want to lose all their animals – and income.* No farmer wants to *lose all their animals* - and income - i would have thought - or you mean *their income* doesn’t matter - just that of the subset of bosses of *modern, well run factory farms*, paying good money for *Biosecurity Experts*, like yourself? Daszak laments: *What you’ve got now is a lot of **amateur farmers**, who have converted old properties that are pretty **unsecure** from a disease **point of view**.* Ok, so now it's a *War-on-Hippies, as well!* In fact a war on Alternative Lifestyles in general - anyone wanting to get less reliant on an increasingly centralized system. So what’s left in Daszak’s ideal world of biosecurity? When you cancel indigenous-alternative lifestyles? Apart from massive funding for biosecurity experts? As per *THE Science* dogma, all roads lead to *Data Centralization* - with themselves at the centre.
