Stay out of Missouri!

That’s one of the valuable lessons from the folks at the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, who offer the state as an example of how to respond to a biological threat. The steps are only slightly less stupid than those given for a nuclear blast. (In which a man who looks suspiciously like those in the airplane safety flyers learns he should: 1. Take cover. 2. Escape. 3. Take cover.)

Truly, if we’re at the point where we need to make flyers to tell people this, we’re fucked. (And as for why they picked Missouri, I have no idea. Maybe it’s because at least a few of them are showing some sense.)

Update: ahh, at least someone has good nuclear blast tips.
