Meat and dairy ag lead to antibiotic resistance in bacteria through overuse of antibiotics and pandemic viral pathogen evolution. It has killed many before and will kill many more in the future without industry overhauls and reducing the industry's unreasonable lobbying influence. Maybe it's not a good idea to play Russian roulette with 5 bullets in a 6 chamber firearm?
According to wikipedia: "The true fatality rate may be lower because some cases with mild symptoms may not have been identified as H5N1".
Effectively, only the most extreme cases result in a visit to a medical professional where they figure out what it is and treat it. Otherwise for everyone else, they just get sick with what's seemingly a flu and recover without severe issues, and it isn't recorded as a H5N1 case.
>> California has recently seen a significant rise in detections of H5N1 in dairy herds. Experts believe that animals at as many as half the dairy farms in California are infected. That is why it is important to pasteurize milk, which kills the virus. (All milk sold across state lines is pasteurized; 30 states allow the in-state sale of nonpasteurized milk, which is labeled “raw.”)
>> Two states, Colorado and Pennsylvania, have agreed to test pooled milk from all farms before pasteurization to monitor spread. Bulk milk testing should be mandatory in all states with dairy farms to determine the full extent of the infection on these farms and also allow us to contain the virus. As if to underline the importance of such a mandate, bird flu was detected in raw milk bought retail last Thursday from a dairy producer based in Fresno, Calif.

thank you.
ive posted re: reassortment previously. i think its important in the way that module like shuffling occurs, between variations

> As outbreaks continued to occur, the mortality rate surpassed 50 percent.
Discuss.

Stop the spread now:

In such a way that they rarely spread infectious diseases to humans, fwiw.
I swallow magnet regularly just in case. Be safe!
