One wonders if after upload of his memories to A.I. he opts to have his head removed and kept alive as insurance. Back in the 80's an engineer and attorney explained the technology that perhaps by now is present that could keep the brainwaves from flatlining. This based on animal experiments to date. My joke then was we would never be without a Head of State.

Yeah for real. Nearly 500k have contracted meat allergy from Alpha Gal, after tick bites from lone star ticks. Also Alpha-Gal allegedly is in the injection. I saw that news yesterday but am not locating it rapidly.

Nearly half a million Americans have developed a red meat allergy after being bitten by a TICK - and majority are completely unaware of the link, CDC research says

Reaction, called alpha-gal syndrome, caused by sugar carried by ticks

When it gets in body it triggers immune overreaction and body learns to fight it

Nearly half a million people in America have developed a meat allergy since 2010 after being bitten by a tick, health officials believe.

Studies published by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention today confirmed at least 100,000 patients have fallen victim to the condition, but researchers estimate as many as 450,000 are affected.

The reaction, called alpha-gal syndrome, occurs when an infected person eats beef, pork, venison or other red meat.

But it can also be triggered by milk, gelatin or other animal products. It is caused by a sugar, alpha-gal, that is in meat from mammals - and in tick spit.

When the sugar enters the body through the skin, it triggers an immune response and can lead to a severe allergic reaction.

Well, I'll be darned.

Imagine if a carnivore got ticked.

Might be a ticked off public, but no the tranquilizers work well.

Ah, the tranquillisers in the shots.

A real hornets' nest.
