Former CDC director predicts bird flu pandemic
The Hill ^ | 06/15/2024 | LAUREN IRWIN

Former Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Director Robert Redfield said he predicts a bird flu pandemic will happen, it’s just a matter of when that will be.

Redfield joined NewsNation Friday to discuss the growing concern for bird flu, as the virus has been detected in dozens of cattle across the country and the World Health Organization identified the first human death in Mexico.

“I really do think it’s very likely that we will, at some time, it’s not a question of if, it’s more of a question of when we will have a bird flu pandemic,” Redfield said.

He also noted that bird flu has a “significant mortality” when it enters humans compared to COVID-19. Redfield predicts the mortality is “probably somewhere between 25 and 50 percent mortality.” NewsNation noted that the death rate for COVID was 0.6 percent.

Of course he does. Is there a vaccine for Bird Flu? Where do I line up for that vax?

Is it time to start panicking yet?

Planned for fall of 2024. Election will need to be postponed or else mail in ballots to be sent to the democrat party headquarters to be counted with vote tallies delivered to election officials.

I’ll take my chances. I’ve already beaten the odds of making it this far. So, as far as I am concerned, I am already living on bonus time. 🤣

Maybe he's talking about the vaxxed mortality rate. In his Build Back Better program, his vaxxes will have MORE spike proteins and secret proprietary ingredients that you don't need to know about.

Unlike some, I try to stay current on some shots, including flu and pneumonia. I just hope that flu vaccines will continue to be more in the traditional line rather than with the more recent Covid mechanisms.

”Redfield predicts the mortality is “probably somewhere between 25 and 50 percent mortality.”

Probably predicting high mortality since all those that took the Covid Clot Shots have severely comprised immune systems now.
