    Why is this down voted?

    It’s literally happened before. Recently australia killed all animals at shelters due to covid. China killed all pets in cities during covid. There are other examples before covid.

      Because it’s stupid. The infection isn’t dangerous to humans, it’s anywhere from symptomless to cold-like symptoms. It’s not super contagious to humans, and even if it were it’s not dangerous.

      And the disease exists elsewhere in the world without causing big issues. It’s not a new disease, just new to the UK.

        It’s an extremely unplausible scenario as it’s nothing like Covid and more like a flu except it basically can’t spread between humans.

        And now you’re trying to play off criticism of your take as some kind of nationalist defensiveness lol
