Re: [LeftLibertarian2] "The Great Influenza"

Lots of diseases are spread by government I.e. Public property

Badly managed public property is the vector or rats and other vermin, just as it is the vector or much crime and pollution

Ir would be a tort of you let your property burn and your neighbors home then caught on fire or if you let your plumbing leak and destroyed the condo below you

But governments let streets sewers sidewalks and alleys be dirty and vermin infested and thus spread disease
