Bird flu outbreak: UK's chief vet sounds code red alarm - it's at a 'phenomenal level'
Tens of thousands of birds, including turkeys, have reportedly already been culled. It is thought that the “largest number of premises ever" have become infected in an outbreak of avian flu.

[LucyT]

The Department for Environment Food and Rural Affairs (Defra) has said that the risk to human health from the avian flu A(H5N1) virus is "very low”

PING

It’s always something.

IF the cockatiels would simply get their boosters this could be avoided.

[KC_Lion]

:/

Of course.

[Boogieman]

Impossible. The flu no longer exists, according to the CDC.

[Yo-Yo]

There goes meat prices again...

Again? Didn't we already have the Bird Flu scare of '97.

They're recycling panic just like Hollywood remakes old movies.

“IF the cockatiels would simply get their boosters this could be avoided.”

All my tiels are anti vax purebloods.

Avian flu is alot worse than this COVID piker.

But, as always, it’s not real contagious for humans, so generally should not get the “COVID hysteria”.

Of course, COVID should not have this hysteria, either.

The flu no longer exists, according to the CDC.

My double-jabbed co-worker was sick and tested positive for the flu but negative for covid. Now he's preaching for everyone to get the flu shot.

👍😂

😏. Welcome to NV. We have a LOT to do to get to red again. First vote sissypants out and a LOT (all?) of the Vegas assembly and Senate fidiots.

[GreenHornet]

Are we allowed to say “Bird Flu?” Do we run the risk of being labeled Avianphobic?

[CAluvdubya]

Thanks. Definitely have to get Sisolak out. Not sure about some of our choices though. Hope Laxalt wins this time and ousts Cortez-Masto!

Vegas is killing us!

[[They’re recycling panic]]

Yup, its like “dancing to the oldies” lol

[Trillian]

Gotta keep people in a constant state of fear.

Look back in the archives months ago here on FR for my posts suggesting that China was already working on a bird flu to cover the next round of elections. Looks like they finished early.
