It can’t be the first human case, as human cases have been happening for years.

Not in the US until recently. I think there was maybe one in 2022, then 2024. Looked it up on the CDC before inauguration. Cases were in mostly places like Vietnam, Cambodia, other Asian countries from what I recall.

The CDC has zero credibility.

He did, and eggs were once again plentiful and the cost of eggs came down. But MAGA went on and on about it through the election. Now the ball is in trump's court. What is he doing about it?

“The strain of bird flu that infected a Michigan dairy farmworker is capable of airborne transmission, amping up concerns about its potential to spark a new pandemic, according to a research letter published in June.”

I knew this was going to be bad and somehow it's already so much worse

Feb. 16 (UPI) -- A quarter of the personnel working in nearly five dozen U.S. laboratories trying to solve the latest avian influenza outbreak have been laid off as part of the Trump administration's plan to reduce the size of the federal workforce.

The firings come amid an ongoing runup in the price of eggs during a time when President Donald Trump has vowed to "end inflation" and reduce the price of groceries.

The cuts come at the USDA's National Animal Health Laboratory Network, which manages data and ensures consistency in labs doing the testing while tracking animal disease outbreaks, making sure they follow similar protocols and standards.

They test every bird in a 10 km radius. Not kill.
And yes, it’s highly pathogenic.

But its the flu, so why? 100+ million plus birds were culled because of it. Its the flu, can't they just call in sick for a week and then get back to egg laying?

Discourse in our country has reached such a low that I'm not sure whether you're being sarcastic or not.

I find the lack of curiosity by most people on this, and really everything, very perplexing.

Some simple questions that are hard to find answers for:
1. What is the mortality rate in wild vs farmed animals for the same species
2. What is the mortality rate for different species of avians
3. What is the mortality rate for different sub-species of avians
4. How does mortality rate vary within like birds when conditions vary

In essence, is bird flu a problem because we've bread chickens to be egg laying meat machines that live in cramped boxes on the edge of survival until they croak at a young age? If so, maybe the way we "solve" avian flu is just kicking the can down the road.

The Amish don’t need to worry about this.

Do you understand how bird flu propagates? Of course they will need to worry about it. Both for their animals but also for themselves.

How do you think they avoided covid?
