Bird flu research by the US and China. https://www.ars.usda.gov/research/project/?accnNo=439621 "Research Project: US-UK-China Collab: Predictive phylogenetics for evolutionary and transmission dynamics of newly emerging avian influenza viruses" 2. Bird flu found in chicken farms: Largest US egg producer temporarily halts production due to avian flu at Texas facility https://www.goodmorningamerica.com/food/story/largest-us-egg-producer-temporarily-halts-production-due-108795657 3. Bird flu jumps from birds to dairy cattle. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/bird-flu-hits-texas-dairy-cows-hens-human-ducks-migrate-2024-04-03/ 4. Bird flu jumps from dairy cattle to humans per CDC https://www.cdc.gov/media/releases/2024/p0401-avian-flu.html 5. Pharmaceutical industry consultants for vaccines predict pandemic 100 times worse than COVID. https://nypost.com/2024/04/04/us-news/bird-flu-pandemic-could-be-100-times-worse-than-covid-scientists-warn/ Roll up those sleves and bend over! Any predictions on what comes after step 5? Edited April 4 by gearhog Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gearhog Posted May 4 Author Share Posted May 4 The number of Bird Flu news articles have exploded the last few days. https://news.google.com/search?q=H5n1 when%3A1d&hl=en-US&gl=US&ceid=US%3Aen COVID created a lot of debate and consternation. No matter how you feel about it, it moved or created, at a minimum, $4.5 Trillion dollars in the US economy. Mostly upward. It happened during an election year, and it affected how people voted. Chaos yields opportunity. There have been virtually no real consequences for anyone who happened to be in a position of authority or benefit, for bad decisions or actions pertaining to COVID. It simply worked. Why would anyone not repeat a successful play? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no doubt they will repeat the play, but many plays only work once. It'll have to be at least 50 years before that trick can be pulled again. People just won't do it this time. Caveat: if the disease is actually more dangerous than a new strain of flu, for example if it kills children instead of old people, the masks will go on in a heartbeat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read some literature that suggested Bird Flu H5N1 has a mortality rate close to 60%, but this is likely a large overestimate given ascertainment bias. That being said there are three traditional (non-MRNA), FDA approved vaccines that would be deployed. There are currently 10 Million doses in mass bulk storage (but it takes two doses to immunize). Lets hope they keep there eye on the ball and stockpile some more vaccine. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biff_T Posted May 6 Share Posted May 6 To be honest, I'd rather die than have Biden or Newsom (or any other government officials Rs or Ds) tell me how to survive another "pandemic". They will fuck this one up too. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It also so far has been in shithole countries (compared to our standards) and any death cases that actually have details beyond just a stat admit multiple underlying conditions. This is more than likely just a repeat of the same fear mongering bullshit we saw with COVID. They want to keep/increase control, and they’ll do anything to accomplish that goal.

Lawman Posted May 7 Share Posted May 7 It also so far has been in shithole countries (compared to our standards) and any death cases that actually have details beyond just a stat admit multiple underlying conditions. This is more than likely just a repeat of the same fear mongering bullshit we saw with COVID. They want to keep/increase control, and they’ll do anything to accomplish that goal. I mean they made that same mistake during early Covid.“It’s decimating Italy” sounds impressive to anyone who hasn’t been to Italy. That’s a “first world country” in name only with a geriatric population. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
