Title: Birb-floo

H5N1 among dairy herd gon' bananas.

From wikipedia, 2024, April, 50% of cats living on the infected farm, fed "unpasteurized" milk, died of severe systemic influenza infection. Concrete evidence of viral shedding in milk detected across several herds.

I mean, this is totes-seriouz.  Oat-milk, taste pretty gud', for a year at least, just, don't even, it's like, br0, the cats.

Most of us remember getting sick from drinking milk in the best-of-times, now with pandemic economy, inflation, worker fatigue, rebel labor faction politics. The industrial food system seemingly runs on diminished quality control.

Wiki- As of April 2024, the WHO reported a total of 889 confirmed human cases which resulted in the deaths of 463 people since 2003.

-- That's a pretty deadly coin-toss.

According to my daughter, the veterinarian, "It's definitely a crisis situation in livestock and poultry right now."

So.. what they're basically saying is H5N1 is essentially now endemic IN COWS.

This is a problem because cows, birds, humans now form an integrated vector trio.  The cows do not die from H5N1, so this virus will constantly evolve due to selection pressure to be omnipresent among the vectored species.


That's wonderful. So excited for the next episode of Pandemic.

"The continued presence of H5N1 in cattle poses significant risks, necessitating urgent and comprehensive measures to understand and mitigate its impact. As Leibler remarked, “H5N1 is with us. It’s not a virus that’s going to disappear by any means.”"

This would be more like a new season of a pandemic show lol.

Also makes me think that my decision to stop eating me was a much better one than I thought healthwise.

Tp4 can only say that there is every reason to go 100% veggie. Every dimension of human existence is improved, and our specie's survival is dependent on this leap in adaptation.

Take it seriously people.  You're on your own with the latest and greatest H5,  the Administration has decided that the economy need not be alarmed.

Take PRECAUTIONS.. Exercise, Sunshine, and Social Distancing.

STAY AWAY from FARMS.   



Article quote: “We are flirting with a massive global pandemic that could be equal to or greater than COVID-19,” Nelson says; yet, all the knowledge and tools we built during the pandemic aren’t being harnessed. It feels, she adds, like “watching a train wreck in slow motion.”

I cannot handle another 2 year pandemic scenario. All my thoughts are grim, zero happiness in life. Every day - stress overload.
Ahhh man....

Don't worry, Drumpf is on the scene and he will handle it as well as he did last time. Well, except for 2 things.

Instead of Fauci we have RF Kennedy Jr. And he knows that investing billions in fast-tracking a vaccine  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Warp_Speed (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Warp_Speed)  is useless because it failed to impress his flock.

It's important to remember, GPU GPU GPU.  If you don't buy GPU now, you won't have any G4m3r fun during the next pandemic.

Don't buy anything 4060ti and below, the value is really bad because of the inflated market.

Some where, at the back of Tp4's mind,  he's thinking,  they just want poor people to die as quickly as possible. None of the policy makes sense for any other purpose.

""The Food and Drug Administration is suspending a quality control program for testing of fluid milk and other dairy products due to reduced capacity in its food safety and nutrition division, according to an internal email""

""The suspension is another disruption to the nation's food safety programs after the termination and departure of 20,000 employees of the Department of Health and Human Services, which includes the FDA, as part of President Donald Trump's effort to shrink the federal workforce.""
