Pandemics don’t just appear out of nowhere.
Zoonosis is as rare as they say it should be.
Novel human viruses emerge from a confluence of factors — environmental disruption, industrial food production, and, of course, the unmitigated spread and mutations due to human behaviour. #OneHealth

I am sorry to say that I was right and The Regime censored this report. The U.S. government is hiding information about bird flu from the American public.

“The interference included dictating what to cover and withholding studies on the growing bird flu outbreak”. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-o...

Anyone who has raised the issue, including Senator Booker has been sued by the Dairy Industry for defamation. There's no data to support any position. There's no data to support 'transmission from wild birds' or 'transmission via chicken litter'.

How the latest #TexasMooFlu mutation took place is not a mystery. This type of "unique" zoonosis jump where the poultry and cattle are infected from one #H5N1 descendant is due to America feeding poultry feces to cattle, then feeding raw milk to chickens.

This is crap data from #CDC.
No conclusion can be drawn from this press release, because the term “strain” is vague.
#TexasMooFlu dairy cattle is genotype B3.13.
The globally circulating #Birdflu is genotype D1.1.
But, #H5N1 B3.13 also shows up in birds.
Nevada says in its press release about the new #H5N1 #birdflu infections in dairy herds that "Preliminary results show this detection to be consistent with a strain that has also been detected in wild birds in all North American flyways."
Is this not the virus circulating in cows? Anyone know?

NZers: if you're over 45 and haven't had a TDAP (tetanus, diphtheria and pertussis) vaccine in the last 10 yrs, you're due for a free booster.
We are in a pertussis epidemic currently, which tragically has recently caused the death of a baby, so it's a good time to boost your immunity.

It would take another 2 years to know if prions have entered the food supply along with #TexasMooFlu.

bsky.app/profile/real...
Prions are the real threat.
#USDA's refusal to put an end to feeding chicken litter (feces, corpses, bedding) to dairy cattle or eliminate the practice of feeding raw milk to chickens is a near-perfect cycle to introduce prions into America's food supply.
Just add SARS genetic recombination. 18/

The final human-to-human mutation of novel HPAI #H5N1 is likely to have a CFR of around 5%. For this reason, #TexasMooFlu will be dismissed and minimized as #JustTheFlu.

These early steps—rapid information-sharing, collaboration with countries, and risk assessments—illustrate WHO’s role in detecting and responding to health threats. Lessons in these areas continue to shape global preparedness and response efforts today.

Do you want evidence of political manipulation?
CDC's own IRAT risk assessment after two human infections with an unknown source that had substantial mammal-improved receptors would elevate the IRAT score above 7.9 to HIGH RISK.
The receptor binding score is no longer a 3!

We still remember the first time detecting the proteins of SARS-2003 in the CNS of SARS Survivors who had died of early onset and rapidly declining Alzheimer's & Parkinson's. We opted to verify "as a control" patients who'd died regularly of Alzheimer's and found HCoV-OC43's envelope protein.

"year-round baselines are still enough to cause heavy human & financial costs"

This is exactly what should be the focus. Waves deliver the drama. However its that constant relentless cycle of reinfections that is the existential threat.
- unpredictable variant waves driven by ongoing viral evolution
- not showing seasonal patterns
- year-round baselines are still enough to cause heavy human & financial costs
- capabilities for damage (Long Covid) far beyond common cold coronaviruses or influenza

It's not a cold & not a flu.
