Bird flu viruses are a particular threat to humans because they can replicate at temperatures higher than a typical fever, one of the body's ways of stopping viruses in their tracks, according to new research led by the universities of Cambridge and Glasgow.

      They cancelled the vaccine manufacture program, they put antivaxxers and idiots in charge of public health, and it’s currently spreading between farms airborne and they’re insisting it is not. And in the cases where it jumps to humans, it kills them a lot of the time so far.

      Good times. What’s the worst that could happen.

      I’m sure organic veggies and RFKJr’s colloidal silver will clear it right up

    Stop eating fucking birds you fucking trash people. You’re gonna kill us all!

    And while you’re at it, stop eating/exploiting any other sentient beings.
