How bad do you think the H5N1 situation is? I tried to search on LessWrong and EffectiveAltruism, but haven’t found that much discussion.
When I was reading about H5N1, a lot of my assumptions were broken. I was shocked how vulnerable we are to the most “predictable” threats.
Should/can rationalists take this threat into account? Can this threat warrant even, I dunno, some community-wide preparation?
Edit:this comment gives specific predictions. Can somebody explain the justification behind such predictions? What exactly keeps the risk relatively low?
[Question] H5N1. Just how bad is the situation?
