That’s gotta be a top priority to get back to earth to foist upon us study!

Could it be possible that something known from here mutated into something new up there?

As I understand, that's what it is. Mutated due to the microgravity and conditions on the ISS.

Oh, I thought they found Fauci up there!

Guess the best option is complete isolation of the crew on the station until a vaccine can be created. No matter how many years it takes, they all have to stay there for the sake of the rest of the world.

MRNA vaccines against the ISSvid strain will be available shortly. You will take the series of shots and be happy!

 

[Gunmetalgray]

So was it brought up there & mutated or did they created it during 'research'?

Yup, that's what came to mind.

Never again will I take a series of shots . . . never!

It’d better hurry, I read the weather Wednesday is gonna kill is all.
Or maybe that was Tuesday.
Welp, off to work I go.

If you circulated the same air in your house for like 30 years straight you'd have some pretty gross stuff growing, too.
