The official bird flu narrative continues to move forward.…
Back in April the scaremongering stories were ramped up. We were told that the bird Flu was jumping from birds to cows and from cows to humans and it was even suggested that we should stop eating red meat. And they are still determined to shut down our food supply.
Then in May it was reported that 70 people in Colorado were being “monitored” for bird flu symptoms following “potential exposure”. Details on the exact nature or method of exposure were not released for some reason.
A poultry worker in Michigan, became the second official US bird flu case on May 21st.
Now we hear that another egg farm, this time in Iowa is about to to cull millions of healthy birds after a single case was detected.
But never fear…new vaccines both for the birds and the humans are being developed with Covid-like efficiency.
The Off Guardian reports: There are now fears that Bird Flu may have spread to the food supply, after it was found in a “condemned dairy cow”.
Four days ago, Forbes reported a “new study” claiming “Drinking Infected Milk Could Spread Disease”. While NPR is warning that “limited testing leaves safety questions unanswered” regarding raw, unpasteurized milk.
But it’s not just chickens and cows we have to worry about now.
The Atlantic is worried about pigs, with Katherine Wu calling them “The Bird-Flu Host We Should Worry About”
Just today the Telegraph reported that a “slight evolution” in the H5N1 influenza strain has allowed it to “adapt to mammalian hosts”.
One ecologist told phys.org that infections in dairy cows are just “the tip of the iceberg”, and that mammals all over the globe are infected.
It’s spreading outside America too. The world’s third human case was supposedly an Australian child recently returned from travelling in India, alongside that two Victorian farms have reported cases of a different strain.
Naturally, China is going along with it, reporting their own fatality due to a third strain of bird flu earlier today.
So that’s the problem chuntering along at a decent pace. How’s the solution coming along?
An article in MedicalXPress discusses the “ethical considerations” for various bird flu interventions.
New vaccines – both for chickens and humans – are being developed with Covid-like efficiency. The human shot is of course mRNA based.
Reuters reports that the US, UK, EU and Canada are all “taking steps to acquire or manufacture H5N1 bird flu vaccines”. Some nations are already considering mandating all poultry farm workers take the shot when it becomes available.
