I would want to hear from a vet. But hard to believe this hasn’t always been happening. There is such a desire with social media to hype everything to scare us

They tried that one a few months ago. If it was going to infect then why has it not done so among poultry workers?

‘ There is such a desire with social media to hype everything to scare us’

It has happened since the beginning.
More than half of viruses that infect humans have come from other species.
