for NOAH's PARK:

♫ A long time ago, when the Earth was green.
More kinds of viruses than you ever had seen.
They spread around free as the Earth was being born.
But the best of all someday became the unicorn.

♫ we got green #YellowFever
and long necked #Flu

♫ some humpty-backed #Polio
and the #MonkeyPox too

♫ some #HPV and #ChickenPox
but sure as you're born

♫ You should never once again
see #Measles airborne

#Canada should be all over this, too. We don’t want American plague rats bringing everything from #polio to #measles to COVID. And you know some of the #MAGA crowd would deliberately bring infectious diseases if they could - there was/is lots of that from anti-maskers / anti-vaxxers for #COVID.
