Amid an escalating bird flu outbreak spreading in the United States, federal health officials have begun to brief members of the incoming Trump administration about how they’ve responded to the crisis so far.

“We sent them all of the information on our work,” said a Biden administration health official familiar with transition briefings within the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

It’s the first indication that the two administrations appear to be working together to prioritize the H5N1 response.

Until now, it was unclear whether the Biden White House and Trump’s incoming health team had discussed bird flu in any transition meetings. A lack of coordination between the two groups would have huge consequences, public health officials and infectious disease experts warn. They worry that the H5N1 virus has the potential to set off another human pandemic.

“What’s more, Kennedy’s team has signaled it didn’t see value in seeking input from Biden health officials.

In a statement, Katie Miller, a spokesperson for Kennedy, said via text that the American people “don’t want or need the Biden administration to tell us how to do anything.”

“What would career bureaucrats who failed our nation during COVID know how to handle anything,” Miller added. “They have failed beyond measure on every national crisis.”

You can bet the Biden regime will have China come up with a super dooper bird flu, spread it around the US and then claim “Hey we warned Trump he didnt listen”

Seeing as how egg prices in Phoenix went up to $10 for a dozen eggs I do not want anyone listening to the reptilian Biden Regime.

Seriously, if the Trump Administration listens to any of these people they’re gonna get a repeat of 2019 and then we will be forced to burn it all down.

A Biden health official is like a Biden State Department official is like a Biden DOD official is like a Biden DOJ official (next million comparisons not shown, but you know who they are)...in that we can trust them as much as we’d trust Kamala to utter a comprehensible sentence.

It’s BS.

Newsom already caused eggs to go up to 8,49 or more in California because of the supposed bird flu emergency.

How convenient as soon as Trump takes office. First it was a Russian hoax then after the Ukraine hoax and now it’s going to be the freaking bird flu hoax. If people drink it up they’re stupider than anything else. I for one I’m not going to obey! They can throw me in jail they can drag my ass to prison… I am not gonna do that ever again

Every failure is a learning experience if you take advantage of opportunity

Listen politely, take notes and learn what you can. .
