Thank you for hosting! From the Virus

Dear Dingo:
I am totally grossed out by viruses. Why do these disgusting things even exist?

Answer: 
That's virusist! Viruses have been around for millions of years and are not going anywhere. Like it or not-- they are the most abundant biological entity on earth, found in every ecosystem and part of the carbon cycle--keeping nasty bacteria in check.

You crazy humans just love to mess with the balance of nature. What is natural, ethical or hygienic about back alley wildlife markets from which all these zoonotic viruses emerge from in the first place?

But instead of WHO or the UN ending nasty meat markets--(too simple?) You run around like chickens with your heads cut off when these animal viruses jump to human hosts.

Viruses are kind of rude and really into consumption, but they need you ! Scientists believe we may have actually co-evolved with viruses, simply to host them (rude, right?) Animals and humans have been running these free virus AirBnB's since the beginning of time. You can leave all the bad reviews you want, but these freeloaders aren't going anywhere...
