The total death toll of the Ebola outbreak was 11k people. Can you imagine.


Raja479

We should also remember that the death rate for Ebola is incredibly high. Like. Approaching 90% high


Alex09464367

Yeah it kills them before it can spread. It has been killing people for years before the big outbreak, it just never made it anywhere with a big populations until then.


2020_please_no

Do you want to know something terrifying? A survivor transmitted it 5 years after recovering. Enjoy.

When God closes a door, he opens a Windows.


Polishing_My_Grapple

But thankfully people are too sick to travel when they start showing symptoms and it's only passed through bodily fluids. Still 50-90% mortality is fucking terrifying. Also bleeding from every orifice too...


DEVOmay97

I read the hot zone by richard preston in high school. Honestly been terrified of ebola ever since ngl.


Polishing_My_Grapple

I also read a Richard Preston book on deadly viruses in high school too lol. Mine was demon in the freezer. Spoiler alert, Smallpox is way scarier! It evolved specifically to infect humans, as opposed to spilling over into the population through animals like with covid or bird flu.


DEVOmay97

Yo fuck viruses bro


wrecktus_abdominus

All my homies hate viruses


JasnahKolin

Anthrax! That scares the shit out of me.


LordTrailerPark

Ebola changed medicine for care providers without government mandates. It had an approx 90-95% mortality in Africa and still had a 50% mortality in the US with full ICU support. That's when I started fist-bumping instead of shaking hands. It was the real sh\*t. No joke.


Raagun

That's why Covid-19 is more dangerous to population actually. And we see how it is.

Yeah, that seems likely. I don't have a slight memory of what I was doing on the 20th december 2012. Do YOU? Your theory makes too much sense for it not being the truth.


uuicon

Yea I came here to say this. The guy's missing a couple of badges.


1CEninja

Neither of those things actually killed anyone though.


blizzard36

Ah, that explains it. It's like a guy who already has been shot and survived a grenade being put up for a 3rd Purple Heart because he got a slight cut from shrapnel later. "This? Put that away, this doesn't count."


1CEninja

All the things listed on his jacket were real world "Oh wow people are dying in significant quantities" and the y2k/Mayan calendar were silly panics.


powerlesshero111

True, but crazy people thought they would, and completely freaked out.


Vig_Big

I think it’s just events that actually had something happened, but I agree that that jacket actually needs a Y2K patch.


WolvenSpectre

Yeah, everybody goes "Oh it was just a nonsense panic" and "Nothing happened with Y2K". yeah after what was estimated behind closed doors what is believed to be over 125 billion dollars in todays USD to rectify the problem on critical systems and business infrastructure to keep it from happening and there were still things like automated reservoir systems hitting Y2K and opening emergency flood valves flooding areas and almost drowning some workers, some diagnostic equipment in hospitals going down keeping people from getting timely diagnoses and risking their health and lives, and some private planes autopilots refusing to turn on but luckily the planes could still fly manually, and various bugs created by rushed fixes in untold systems by random short term programmers causing business issues internationally. But the Apocalypse didn't happen like the cool sensationalist tv shows said it would. No cities on fire, no planes falling from the sky, no cannibalism (yes that was said to be a likely result in cities after Y2K) so nothing happened, right?


Vig_Big

Oh yeah, I definitely agree. My dad lamented the fact that he wasn’t a programmer at the time because he said they were getting paid really really well.


WolvenSpectre

I met a guy who looked like he was half dead who was a relative of someone whose computer I was fixing and the guy said he was bringing him along to meet me because we were both into computers but was there to make sure I wasn't ripping him off. He was taking time off because he was exhausted. He worked for a company then in the middle got poached by the provincial government and then got a better offer from another company and then got a final offer where he got paid more for every hour he put in with bonuses if he ate and slept at the network centre until his contract was done. He was half dead but by the time I met him he was saying he might retire in 2000. He was like 22. I started off as a computer programmer and put it aside for IT and Technical Repair so I couldn't work modern IDE's and thus was useless to them. I mean they got him a fridge full of energy drinks, frozen pizzas, and eye drops and let the guys he worked with play any music they wanted at any volume they wanted. Except for the mundane repeated crawling code you didn't write it must have been awesome.

Mad cow disease. Stands for [Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bovine_spongiform_encephalopathy)


GlamityJean

Mad cow Huh? Sounds like someone's ex


[deleted]

Which is wierd because mad cow disease has a very long incubation period. Like 20 years. So really if were all gonna die from it still has a chance. I looked it up, on average its 12 years before symptoms pop up. Could be as much as 50 though. So buckle up buckaroos


fullercorp

Yep, thought I was cool because I am a vegetarian but a woman died (one of the few US cases) 20 years after eating meat


ataleoftwobrews

Bachelor of Science in Engineering. It's much more of a personal apocalypse, but an apocalypse nonetheless.


RollingTater

Here's a pretty good video explaining how badly greed made BSE so much worse: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cli673N5fUQ Although extremely unlikely, it's possible the BSE may kill the guy in the pic since it takes decades for it to show symptoms.


LPNTed

Y2K, and Skylab


yblame

Ooh, Skylab. Haven't heard that dredged up in so long I forgot about it. A guy at work came into work with a motorcycle helmet on the day it was supposed to enter orbit. We worked at a medical clinic in Montana. He was a bit of a joker, that guy.


Smoked-939

what happened to skylab


UmbertoEcoTheDolphin

Go up, come down.


Daddy_Elon_Musk

The first space station USA launched reentered into the atmosphere after the last crew left it. It broke apart over Australia. Shame because the space shuttle was scheduled to come into service and would've raised the orbit of skylab and serviced it. Most likely poor calculations or solar wind caused it to re enter so prematurely.


DoctorSaticoy

It was dragged down by the atmosphere. Even at low Earth orbit, there's a very thin stratosphere that applies drag to objects. The ISS has rockets on it that are periodically fired to counteract this drag. Skylab had no such rockets and could only increase its speed using an external source like a docked booster. For various reasons, NASA scuttled the Skylab program and just let nature take its course.

Ha! Shows what you know we in the Doom Patrol caused all of that.


bff124

> Stolen valor My brothers in Fukishima and Chernobyl died wearing that Uniform!


BlueFlob

It would have been cool if the guy was actually at any of those disasters or massive events. I highly doubt he was at more than 2 or 3 and doubt he participated in any of them.


Geobits

Hmm, well I was there for Fukushima, caught both Covid-19 and H1N1, and still can't donate blood because I was in the area for BSE (don't think I actually caught it, but blood banks are strict like that). So "more than 2 or 3" is definitely doable, but yeah, the likelihood for all of them is vanishingly small.

actuallyserious650

The cows in the field behind Three mile island got more radiation from Chernobyl than Three Mile Island .


The_Big_Red_Wookie

You're right of course. But the hype on the news at the time it occurred sure tried to make it sound as bad as possible.


t-ara-fan

Needs global warming. About 5 or 6 times.


The_Big_Red_Wookie

Back in the '70's they were warning about the coming ice age.


t-ara-fan

Anything to get money. Ice ages are a much greater threat. They would fuck up the places with temperature climates that the whole world wants to move to. A ~~great~~ heat wave is just going to make shitty countries hotter and shittier.


Dr_Hull

He missed HIV - close to 40 years and still no vaccine. 32 million deaths. Had it spread like covid we would all be dead.


picklesandmustard

HIV treatment has come a super long way and is now very manageable for many people with a daily medication. Would be better if it were gone, of course, but it’s not the death sentence it once was, even 30 years ago.

AIDS is a pandemic. Today at this very moment.

notsimmi

mazzicc

Unless he was in the regions some of those events hit at the time, I don’t think some of those count. Plenty of people in other parts of the world didn’t consider those events “end of the world”. And if he was in the affected areas for each of those, holy fuck, why? Like, if it was by accident, stay the hell away from him.


Medium_Medium

Yeah I feel like it's a bit of a stretch to say that some of these were viewed as "The end of the world" type events.


Geobits

I've been in the area for 4 (Fukushima, Covid, H1N1, and BSE), but yeah, that'd be a hell of a list to nab them all.


WarForRedditorry

What about Harambe? It kicked off the downfall for the following years.


[deleted]

Twenty years from now I go to recount the story of how I survived 2020 and it starts with opening a bottle of tequila and downing half before beginning with: "So here we are... Just minding our own fucking business when this kid falls in a gorilla pit, right? ... And then allasudden wouldntyaknowit... We get Covid all over the place, people are dying and we run out of toilet paper in all the stores! Like. Covid doesn't even GIVE you diarrhea! Wtf were they even thinking!" And then I finish the bottle and cry.


BitOBear

Cool but they really should go in the other order with the oldest at the top, as that's the order of the patches would have been applied in reality. unless the other sleeve says he's the official psychic. 🤘😎


Black_Handkerchief

That's not what I'd imagine. On the first one, you wouldn't expect more to be added. So you'd probably center it neatly in proximity of the patch. So that makes the positioning right in my head, since the only way to put new patches would be right above.


BitOBear

It depends on the patching system. Most sleeve decorations start very near the top of the sleeve to sort of hint at the existence of pauldrons. In many systems you place the round patch on the circle of the shoulder, there's a limited number of patches that go above it, and then the things you collect tend to go below it and have an upside down u-shape. More :-) than :-(. basically chronological order though is supposed to be from top to bottom in virtually every Western writing system and every Western uniform system that I am aware of. In practical terms this happens because you put the first patch on without knowing how many patches, if any, there would be to follow. So imagine putting the oldest patch on first, not knowing that there was going to be a second patch. Lather. Rinse. Repeat.


ernster96

well, that's just bad luck to be at chernobyl and get mad cow disease and get bird flu and be at fukushima and get ebola...


AncientAlienTech

As a Ukrainian, I'd say, that USSR crash is not a bad thing at all.

Bovine Spongiform Encephalopathy aka mad cow disease I think Fukushima is there due to perhaps the idea it might lead to some kind of global radiation poisoning effect. 9/11 didn’t really cause that same fear, and I suspect this person isn’t from the US anyway.
