On a very staid, professional, public health email list that deals with emerging diseases, I did a double or triple take. What I first thought I read was "COVID-19 and miniskirts". That would be upsetting on multiple levels.
Looking again, it was about a possible zoonotic presentation, "COVID-19 and muskrats."
Maybe there are some story possibilities in this. It's occasionally come up in some current writing dealing with sex worker friends and possibly organized crime. Also, I've been doing some do-over, with less obvious connections. Anyone else have ideas in this theme?
