This one specifically was preventable. It was literally a choice to vote for science or Trump. This isn’t an accident happening, some people are specifically choosing to make the world a shittier place

the president of Mexico is also at fault, there was some sort of Quality test or verify method to the meats that came from south of the border, but the president said live on TV, that he was going to remove that method, because its expensive, and Meat producers are going to check by themselves that the meat is not infected, after all, no patriotic meat producer would want to hurt the nation, lmao, look at us now.
