(Truncated excerpt) From Perplexity AI with the prompt to ‘describe bird flu in the style of The hitchhikers guide’:

“In true Hitchhiker’s Guide fashion, the advice for dealing with bird flu is simple: **Don’t Panic**—but do wash your hands and avoid cuddling chickens. Scientists have even gone so far as to tweak the virus in labs (because why not?) to understand it better, though this has sparked debates about whether they’re preparing for a pandemic or just tempting fate.

For now, the public health risk remains low, but if you’re feeling feverish after visiting a poultry farm, perhaps consult a doctor—and maybe pack a towel just in case. “

The answer, of course, is for the government to order all the Chickens to stay indoors and wear masks to prevent the spread of the virus. Better mask the cows too! /sarc

People I know who have “yard birds” aren’t having birds die and they are eating them and selling with no ill effects. The PCR test that is being used is as flawed as the Covid test.
