How to Avoid the Zika Virus and Not Die A Lot

Zika has now killed over 500 trillion people in your neighborhood today alone, particularly in the Americas somewhere. Do not be one of the statistics, and do not even read the statistics.
| Avoid places where Zika is known to congregate, such as door knobs. |  |
| If you see Zika on the ground, do not pick it up. |  |
| Avoid eating Zika or place Zika near your mouth. Under no circumstances should Zika be inserting anything up your nose. |  |

He now spends his time seething about this and writing about other stuff that bothers him.
