The way the mainstream media covers Bird Flu is wild. It's like a watchman who sees a giant ogre coming and says, "There's on ogre out there. But don't worry, he's walking the other way. Oop! He's walking this way, but he's probly headed somewhere else. Oh, ok, he's headed this way, but he probably won't eat anybody when he gets here. Ok, he's here, but so far he's only looking at folks hungrily. He's probably just window shopping. Ok, so now..."

Who is tracking closely?

Somewhat closely?

Who should I be following?

I have questions about the quality of research identifying temperature at which the virus is guaranteed to be killed.

Other questions too. Always with the questions.

⚠️ Effective immediately, all dairy milking operations will be relocated inside elementary schools.

As we learned during COVID, there is no viral spread in schools.

That is all, and thank you.

I have herd loud bleating from some of you that putting dairies in schools will not work

First, that's bull. Don't have a cow

Second, I can report that after 5500 hours of milking, we found no infections we had not contact traced to having been caught in the com-moo-nity.

Look at that - The CDC are recommending respirators for bird flu!

It’s almost like they understand that a respirator PREVENTS transmission of viruses.

Guess what it can also stop? Covid! You don’t have to wait until you’re near a sick or dead animal to put one on.

" on may not have much immunity to the disease, since the virus has not been documented on the continent until now. Outbreaks among penguins in South America and Africa show their vulnerability. The birds, which like to waddle together in packed colonies, are not particularly good at social distancing."
