Do you wonder why you haven’t heard much about this massive TB outbreak recently? Cuz the CDC can’t hold any press conferences or issue public statements of any kind.

As an Immunologist who has studied Influenza I was worried about H5N1, I am horrified re: H5N9.

Our population has no pre-existing immunity.

I repeat, we have NO PRE-EXISTING immunity to H5N9.

(we have a little with H5N1 via H1N1 vaccines & infections)
