A package of tiny dead birds hidden in a passenger's bag has been confiscated by Customs agents at a Virginia airport.

U.S. Customs and Border Protection intercepted the package at Dulles International Airport after the passenger landed on a flight from China on January 27.

The passenger told agents that package of dead birds was just cat food.

The plastic packaging had pictures of a cat and dog on the outside - similar to what pet treats look like. Inside the bag were a number of dead dried birds, which were about 2.5 inches to 3.5 inches long.

If they were dried birds, they would not be a good carrier at all. Not saying they would be 100% immaculate, but damn close, if they were fully dried.

They came here by air, bird flew...

Bring Out Your Dead

Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.

The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.

So far the false positive rate is 100%.

At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.

*sigh* Such is life, and death...

If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.

Isn’t that crazy? I mean with this virus spreading like wildfire and birds being a known carrier of various disease it just seems bizarre.

I had some of the same thoughts, they flew this to the doorstep of the nation’s capital, Dulles Airport. Where were they going with this stuff?

There used to be a rational time when this type of behavior was shamed and the perps thrown in prison or worse.

Now, it’s celebrated and its our fault that we don’t “understand their culture”.

How about China trying to spread this bioweapon of “coronavirus” to the entire industrialized world?
