Well, that's one way to stochastically get rid of excess population now seen as surplus to requirements, I guess.

Any former employees of the CDC might be interested to know that the EU has been beefing up epidemic response and is hiring. Assuming you'll be allowed to leave the country, of course.

The link works fine for me. Might be some kind of geo-blocking issue.

Here's an Archive link to the article.

I have seen this happen with MSN in the past, and yes, it is an issue like that on MSN's end.
