Bird-flu pandemic on the horizon

[Anonymous]

This virulent virus has jumped species again. Worse still, the virus has been detected by the FDA, in milk.

Don’t throw out your masks and Covid supplies just yet. 2024-25 could be another wild ride.

"According to many public health officials, the virus load in the infected cows’ milk is especially high, raising the possibility that the disease is being spread through milking machines or from aerosolized spray when the milking room floors are power washed. Another possible route is the cows’ feed, owing to the fairly revolting fact that the U.S. allows farmers to feed leftover poultry bedding material — feathers, excrement, spilled seeds — to dairy and beef cattle as a cheap source of additional protein."
