Doubtful. It just doesn't make sense to prepare for these 1 in 100 year things, especially when the next pandemic virus will likely meet a much better healthcare system, perhaps one with broad-acting antivirals. Like, this pandemic will likely not kill as much as the 1918 spanish flu simply due to better medicine.

I encorange you to think what,would happen in a scenario where airborne ebola is burning through the world at the same time as most of our antibiotics start to fail due to resistance. It's so horrendous to think about. I can't belive you think it's not worth preparing for. You reckon the USA should scrap its military until an invading force turns up on the west coast?
