That sounds really strange, but I need to have it verified. Too easy to fake it and put online.

You give the earth too little credit for it's ability to deal with humans. I saw about a year ago the entire earth's population could fit in Texas with about the same density as New York City. Just last night I saw a reporter in India talking about a slum area where she said the people density was 30 times that of NYC! Given those reports, if need be we could bring people into a higher density way of life and stop suburban sprawl -- leave the wide open spaces for improved agriculture. Think about this: No one has said there will be no more ice ages. When that happens, the world's population will be squeezed down toward the equator. There will most likely be major wars to grab as much land as possible. Events like that could make anything gone before look tame.

A better image would make it easier to read, especially the second page

It’s not fake at all but they claim it’s a total coincidence.

Koontz's book does mention Wuhan (and the first edition the virus was called the Gorky 400; in '96 the republished version had it as Wuhan 400) - but apparently the reason Koontz used Wuhan as the source was simply because that is where China's version of ASAMRIID (the national bioweapons lab) is located.

If you want to know about the future, get a good world history book and the book of Revelation. Then only true prophecy book.

My old eyes can't read that small. It would help if you'd download it. However, I'm with Dan Phillips.

In Isaac Asimov's "I Robot" book series, he describes a world (on a distant planet) where all humans live in isolated compounds and only interact with each other through holograms. The humans get very nervous and anxious when in the company of another human. Sounds like where we are heading?
