>global warming causing Siberian tundra ice sheets to melt. >Scientists have found 4 ancient viruses since 2003. >This is just what they've found not accounting for ones released in areas they haven't found.
Man, our desire for fossil fuels is going to awake terrible shit we can't even fathom.
Only a matter of time before a new plague decimates the population and makes the black death look like a joke.
Charles Campbell
>Global Warming.
sure mate.
Michael Watson
ancient viruses don't represent a treat to us, evolution makes us resist that type of viruses.
Juan Perry
If your body has antibodies for that virus.
Mason Perez
Maybe we will unlock a virus that will turn us into dinosaurs. You don't know faggot
Asher Powell
Question op
These viruses locked in the icy tundra, they must have "descendants" around today correct? Because either these ancient viruses died out or had to evolve. What are the honest chances that these ancient viruses or bacteria are something we've never encountered before? Probably slim to none
Jason Miller
Hopefully a virus will be unleashed that cures faggotry
David Watson
OP here,
Disregard this thread. I'm a faggot that doesn't understand how viruses work.
Aiden Walker

Luke Ross
good, I can't wait for this earth to be destroyed
Oliver Wood
Lmao brah Google will figure out a cure for sure, not worried at all.
Easton Wright
There aren't any fucking viruses locked in our ice caps you dumb faggot
Samuel Hughes
Resistance to viruses aren't built into DNA. That's why babies need vaccines. Antibodies are inherent person to person we have no defense against a virus we haven't had contact with for 30,000 years
Adam Brown
Whats wrong with global warming?
You realise we're at the end of an ice age, and warming is the normal process right?
Matthew Diaz
There are in Siberia. Learn to Google retard faggot
Ian Green
This warming is due to human meddling. >What's wron with it The fact it releasing long lost super viruses?
Jordan Hernandez
oh noez, 4 viruses in 13 years, thats almost one third of one every year >everybody fucking dieded swear on me mum
Liam Evans
nah, last ice age is over, but yes, we're in a inter-glacial period, where everything warms up.
Then it gets cold again, and all the retards think we should stop something something because humans control climates, and not thing like changing solar cycles.
Nathan Cooper
What caused the global warming between each of the Ice Ages?
>MFW dumbasses dont question what the jew-bank owned media tells them.
Invest in Carbon-credits, kids! you can save the world!
Kayden Howard
>black death look like a joke It never will be, just look at detroit
James Johnson
>ancient virus Then why the fuck would they work on modern humans you dumb dingus?
Parker Peterson
Because resistance to viruses aren't built into our DNA fuckwit
Liam Parker
So? You think all viruses can infect all things? Srsly?
Alexander Collins
Not necessarily, if we've never encountered it(ie if it predates us) then evolution wouldn't account for it.
Evolution =/= magic
Christian Collins
>Jew-bank media Jews would be the ones trying to claim global warming isn't a thing because if it was and need to be fixed it would cut into thier profit margins dumbass.
Zachary Jenkins
most of the animals should be fine. There may be ancient aids or other people viruses but we'll be fine. If anything we may finally melt the ice wall and see what lies beyond the edge of the earth
Liam Peterson
>not knowing about witches
Nolan Cruz
Even if we're a compatible host, they've had no chance to develop vaccine resistance... and there's no reason to believe they'd be more harmful than the strains that have been festering actively in third world level filth for thousands of years.
Logan Bennett
oh i know.
Leo Murphy
Shut up
Elijah James
why are you dumbasses fantasising about fake ass viruses that *might* exist, when we've already created the most deadly virus thats ever existed: Dr. Fouchier's mutated strain of H5N1.
could litrially kill half of all humans on Earth.
Joshua Sanchez
>Credible possible threats comparing at all to your retarded fucking flat earth bullshit Kill yourself
Bentley Robinson
Fuck diseases dude, soon enough something Lovecraftian is gonna emerge from the ice. Preparing my shelter rn, I advise you all to do the same.
Thomas Wright
>Scientists finding actual factual ancient viruses in thawing tundras >Trying to make light of that with phony bullshit I hope you get aids and ebola
Christian Howard
Better than being torn to shreds by Nyarlathotep.
Luis Baker
It's a more realistic danger tbh.
Hudson Brown
Not OP, The chances of these being highly lethal is the same as chickenpox being lethal to an adult who never had it as a child. Our bodies need to have made antibodies for it, either through small exposures or relatively similar but less lethal virus (cow pox) which created vaccines. Since the smallpox got completely wiped, but since new generations haven't been exposed to it, it's more potent if it ever came back again
Ryan Thomas
Viruses =/= bacteria
David Cox

Cameron King
could be some mad old Grandpa of golden staph.
Parker Flores
Fucking thank you for being the only not dumbass here
Christopher Stewart

Tyler Cooper
Unlike bacteria, viruses are living. They attract to specific cells, inject their genetic material (rna) into the host cell, which disrupts the cells DNA replication cycle, forcing it to start synthesizing polypeptide for use in viral multiplication. Tldr viruses only infect certain cells, of which we likely don't have
Dominic Phillips
Aren't*
Liam Walker
Nigga, we got a bunch of angry mudslimes that only want to see the world burn rn here, today and you're worried about ancient viruses and what ifs? Smdh fam
Luke Lewis
perhaps just enough to cause mass panic?
knockcing out the electrical grid is really all it takes to send the world into chaos.
Noah Mitchell
if there is something a virus sure isn't, is alive
Ryan Gray
>he thinks humans are the reason the planet is getting hotter >he doesn't realize the entire solar system and all its planets are warming up >he thinks the viruses are being released naturally and not through biological warfare ohhh boiiiiii we got a dumbass in our midst
Jeremiah Flores
20 years ago they said it wont snow in America in 10 years time, now they say ancient super viruses will kill us from global warming. How long are you going to fall for the liberal scaremongering?
Carson Morris
this place would finally be empty again.
Cameron Ross
>ancient virus locked away in ice >inherently going to be one cataclysmic plague somewhere in the ice yeah, and the probability of getting killed by any other means currently doesn't outweigh that chance.
Robert Rogers
So very wrong. Bacteria are alive, viruses aren't. Open a book.
Owen Baker
I corrected the typo immediately after that post.....
Justin Baker
See
Aaron Garcia
anthrax deer corpse in russia defrosted and has spread a deadly anthrax strain to wildlife and humans >shits going to get a lot worse before it gets better does evolution make us immune to deadly deadly anthrax? >didnt think so
Camden White
4 years ago they said we'd have no polar ice 2 years ago, when we had record ice.
Kayden Clark
virus' are alive. >they are organic and they reproduce.
saying a virus isnt alive is as dumb as saying a parasite like heart worms aren't alive
Angel Allen
who said that. I want exact quote not bullshit from ur brain
Christopher Campbell
* they're * Learn to english retard faggot
Hunter Davis
Because there is such an abundance of life that is capable of transmitting these bugs to populated areas.
Jaxon Bell
>Learn to english retard faggot Use proper punctuation user. I am disappointing.
Christian Mitchell
didn't they already reanimate an prehistoric virus and it acted just like the flu? what part about being ancient makes it so lethal? fuck if it was effective it would still be alive too.... just a thought
William Martinez
They're are in Siberia >they are are in Siberia Fantastically wrong, original poster was correct you are actually retarded.
Landon Mitchell
intelligent folk weren't buying into the whole global warming sham so they changed it to climate change instead and tried again
William Reed
>what part about being ancient makes it so lethal? A. The flu is a lethal virus. B. A virus that's been lost for so long humans, animals, and plants have lost all resistances too suddenly being introduced is incredibly potentially lethal.
Zachary Jackson
>Only a matter of time before a new plague decimates the population and makes the black death look like a joke
Good, we have too many people and a lot of them are fucking retarded. Logically 70% of the human race should be pruned. I would fit in the category of the ones to be pruned because i have psychosis and my genetics are too heavily flawed.
Honestly, it would be best if a lot of people died.
David Adams
Are you retarded?
Grayson Sullivan
learn to read dimwit you pathetic pissflap
Austin Rodriguez
What the fuck are you talking about, I was showing him what they're instead is there would do to the sentence.
Jayden Campbell
you're a fucking dumbass.
here are the characteristics of life, with an X next to the only ones viruses have. >[X] responsiveness to the environment; >growth and change; >ability to reproduce; (viruses are not considered to have this ability since they require a host cell and cannot do it on their own) >have a metabolism and breathe; >maintain homeostasis; >being made of cells; and. >[X]passing traits onto offspring.
that's only 2/7. don't get involved in arguments about topics you know nothing about.
Christopher Nelson
Nobody in the scientific community considers viruses to be living things. Look it up. And it's viruses or viri, not virus'.
Aiden Peterson
Uh... not that guy but viruses can change. That's why we need flu shots every year and why they don't always work.
Christian Cooper
do you even get with the times mothafucker?
Camden Myers
>one bubonic plague every 3 years
so the first one takes out 2 billion people the second one takes out 1.8 billion people and then the third takes out 1.4 billion people and then the fourth takes out about a billion people
which leaves us with roughly 800 million people alive which makes your odds of survival around 12 percent.
but the bubonic plague never hit more then 3 times, so itlll never happpennn.
Ethan Gomez
Wow user, ebolaids? That's pretty metal
Jackson Turner
"growth and change" does not refer to genetic change in the group over a longer span of time, it refers to the "life"time of the virus. once they're fully formed and exit the cell, they don't change; they're just simple protein shells with primitive genetic information.
Jackson Campbell
So? You think this one wont be one that does infect humans?
black plague came from rats mad cow came from, shit, iunno man and bird flu, one fucking guess for that one amigo
protip:shit evolves and jumps hosts. when it does, pretty roses and glitter rain from the sky like a party of violent death
Samuel Myers
We're overpopulated anyway, we could use a fresh start. Look what the plague did for us once it was over.
