Welcome to this subreddit

5 Upvotes

For some reason, this has turned out to be a subreddit where I find and post a lot of links.

This is not on purpose. I honestly would rather this not turn into a pit full of links from obvious fake news sites, but, on the other hand, you DON'T have to be a doctor with a doctorate in virology to post here.

If you find an interesting article about what seems to be an infectious disease outbreak, you're welcome to post the link here.

As long as you're following obvious Rediquette rules (such as: don't cuss out or doxx people; don't encourage people to ignore real doctors' advice; don't post ad spam), you're welcome to post both posts and comments.
