DEADLINE open thread. Have a party.

To celebrate the release of Deadline [Amazon]|[Mysterious Galaxy], here. Have an open thread to discuss the book.

THERE WILL BE SPOILERS.

Seriously. If anyone comments here at all, THERE WILL BE SPOILERS. So please don't read and then yell at me because you encountered spoilers. You were warned.

You can also start a book discussion at my website forums, with less need to be concerned that I will see everything you say! In case you wanted, you know, discussion free of authorial influence. I will probably answer a great many comments. I may not answer all of them.

Have fun!

Well, I can think of a few hypothetical "better" ways to handle random amplification. But I think the risk of random amplification is seriously overstated and suspect that the CDC is way inflating those numbers. I mean, when was the last time you saw someone randomly keel over and die on the way to the bathroom?

I suspect that their reasons have a great deal more to do with control and maintaining a culture of fear, rather than preventing an outbreak.
