It’s that time of year again, and dang I really miss March Madness and filling out the brackets. ☹  
(And always being eliminated in the first round! 😀 )

But we fight through and adapt!

So I made up a new bracket. Top plagues / infectious diseases of all time! And don’t complain about the seeding if you don’t like where your favorite ended up!

Good luck with your bracket everyone!

Look for botulism to upset Whooping Cough in the first round…

@Eric, I notice that coronavirus has a pretty tough bracket. Anthrax as its first game, then possibly Measles when the anti-vaxxers are going all out, a quarter finals game against the Bubonic Plague (or Botulism, with Russia having a huge stash of the toxin): that is one tough challenge!

In the long term, I kinda like Syphilis for the championship game. I think that the dropping efficiency of antibiotics gives it a pretty good chance: we may do a decent job at social isolation, but NOTHING will ever stop sex!

Just like it is with basketball, the key is the inside game!

You have to add the rimshot sound after comments like that.

I always have my husband fill out my bracket.
