Pestilence

Yemen's Cholera Epidemic Hits 600,000, Confounding Expectations - Scientific American Scientific American reports: "Yemen’s cholera outbreak has infected 612,703 people and killed 2,048 since it began in April, and some districts are still reporting sharp rises in new cases, data from the World Health Organization and Yemen’s health ministry showed on Tuesday. The overall spread of the epidemic has slowed in the past two months, with the daily number of new suspected cases cut to around 3,000 in recent days. However the epidemic, the most explosive on record in terms of its rapid spread, has continually confounded expectations."

Comment: Really starting to see a spike in Luke 21:11 signs. This cholera outbreak in Yemen has not been as widely reported as it should be, perhaps because it's mostly due to war and not a natural outbreak.
