I would have bet on an ebola variant. It's extremely deadly and about as transmissible as you can get for something that generally doesn't spread through coughing or sneezing. Fortunately it doesn't have the long incubation/asymptomatic period of Covid-19, which turned out to be the key to its success.
- noir_lord 6y agoIt would have to be a significant variant since Ebola is too deadly to spread quickly, it kills the host too fast. That's what makes covid nightmare fuel, a virus that can be entirely asymptomatic in one person but hit like a train on another that has a long incubation/shedding period.
