Vet-med students (and grads) are at the forefront of pandemic prevention. We need to rally to support them, rather than take resources away and add to their burdens. bsky.app/profile/rlsd...

There will be a precipitous drop in DVM students - they live on federal loans - and a rise in the already concerning mental health crisis in vet med, which is partially driven by financial concerns related to school loans

i think it's important to understand the signs of avian flu infection in birds and other animals you may come into contact with (even accidentally. none of us seek out getting bird poop on us), and to follow hygenic steps taught to us when we were 5 (and again during lockdown)
