In the context of this discussion (the post is about GCBRs), it should have been clear what I meant by that term.
Also, it can be claimed that a lot of things are “pandemics” like TB and antibiotic-resistant bacteria, but what is usually meant by the term is rapid, global spread (within weeks to a few months at most) of a deadly pathogen.

It wasn’t obvious to me, and apparently also not to others, that your statements about “pandemics” were not meant to apply to pandemics in general.
In general, when you realise you have been communicating unclearly, it’s a bad idea to blame the people you confused.
I don’t think you’re being reasonable here. So, we’ll just have to agree to disagree.
