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.
Just for added context, that Rutgers professor was stopped. Rebooked their flight for the next day and still safely left the country so yeah. Still 100% fuck this regime, but most of us can’t move, family, finances, job, or lack of skill to immigrate to another country. It sounds so easy, but to literally leave your entire fucking life behind and started all over again from zero in a foreign country with no friends no family, no community, and probably not even knowing the language of the country all that well that’s like a huge turtle and I think most people have no real choice in the matter but to just stick it out regardless of what happens.
That msn link just takes me to the msn homepage.
Sorry, I don't know what to tell you. I thought I'd made a mistake with the direct link and just tried it myself, but it works as expected for me.
In any case, for the benefit of you and anybody else having similar issues: it's a link to an article about the recent issue of Rutgers professor Mark Bray apparently being prevented from leaving the US for Spain. You won't have trouble finding coverage of it elsewhere if you're unaware of it and wish to know more.
The link works fine for me. Might be some kind of geo-blocking issue.
Here's an Archive link to the article.
Thank you
I have seen this happen with MSN in the past, and yes, it is an issue like that on MSN's end.
Yeah I've seen it a few times. Assumed it was a weird mobile bug or something
I'm in the US and it doesn't work for me.
