The companion article about American contrariness was also fun. Fauci warns against drinking raw milk and immediately social media has people promoting drinking raw milk “for immunization” making the sale of raw milk shoot up.
At this moment I think if a new pandemic starts, nurses are just going to quit their jobs in the spot instead of going through all that again.
Fauci warns against drinking raw milk and immediately social media has people promoting drinking raw milk “for immunization” making the sale of raw milk shoot up.
They’re so mentally fragile and easy to manipulate that I feel like Fauci could “warn” against drinking pasteurized milk and getting vaccinated and the problem would solve itself.
The only issue is there’s plenty of people on the left that wouldn’t be able to see what was actually going on and that the left was having a collective “Shhh! ;)” moment and take him seriously and think he lost his mind.
Is the epidemic expected this quarter or next? If it’s this quarter, I have some numbers to make go up. Remind me in three months.
The end of animal agriculture is long overdue
How is this the dairy industry’s job? Surely it’s for government to look after public health? The dairy industry just produces dairy?
The dairy industry can vaccinate their livestock, test their milk for the virus, and (god forbid) improve the conditions the cows live in such that they are not in such constant close contact with one another, among other issues.
And if you read the article, you’ll see that industry regulation is also mentioned.
I can accept the technical name H5N1 influenza, but holy fuck, why in the hell do they call it “bird flu”?!
Cows are not birds. Humans are not birds…
H5N1 is commonly found in wild birds.
And domesticated chickens, and cows…
Your point is?
It’s not supposed to be in cows. That’s the issue.
Who are we to dictate where H5N1 goes?
Obviously it’s in cows and other creatures as well, so clearly it’s not restricted to birds. Face the facts, it’s not a “bird” flu, and it shouldn’t be called that anymore, as it’s obviously not exclusive to birds.
H5N1 works for me. At least the technical name doesn’t mislead people into thinking only one category of animals can get it.
The name is the know where it does come from, and not for who it can infect…
It is not commonly found in cows. That’s new.
