Title (Dublin Core)

A current trend of epidemics/pandemics

Description (Dublin Core)

This picture is food for thought, and for a while was pretty popular as it circulated around the internet. This meme is misleading as it implies that outbreaks are "planted" and do not occur naturally. These kind of posts drive more ideas into the brains of civilians that conspire against the government. The meme itself has incorrect information of the years that the outbreaks have been reported, such as SARS being first reported in 2003 and swine flu pandemic was reported in spring 2009. Posts like these are trending on all different social media platforms that are misleading people with wrong information, making them have more hatred for the government. It is interesting to see how much people want to blame the government for outbreaks and create patterns in order to place blame on other human beings, not taking into consideration the biological factors that of the viruses themselves. #CSUS #HIST15H
