Bird Bird Flu, Bird Flu's the Word

Also, bird flu has killed more than half of the humans it has infected.

It's NOT just "nagging cold symptoms" or "sniffles."

Take care of yourself and don't worry about what some "elected official" does or doesn't do.

The power we ascribe to these nitwits . . .

Around here, it's what I've seen called "The Pollening" so hay fever explains many runny noses and sniffles.

Yes we have that too. My wife and I definitely are not suffering allergies, however. I am also going off of the fact my area was included in spikes of influenza cases in the waste water. It makes sense given horses many are feeling it.

But I also mention cold symptoms et al because while it makes sense we have a flu spike or a cold spike or allergies, I doubt we're seeing bird flu

Egg prices are going back up because factory egg farms are having to kill hundreds of thousands of chickens once an infection is detected. This is happening at the time of year when there is a lot of holiday cooking going on, baking and holiday recipes that use eggs like dressing, eggnog, etc. There have been some cases of it crossing over to cattle.

If it crosses over to humans and RFK, Jr and Trump are in charge of our viral defenses, well...

Can't even drop a few mallards without thinking about it.

"Bird flu in cattle? Why, that ain't bird flu anymore, Cletus. That's cow flu now."

Talk about herd immunity….

Waterfowl officials in different Southeast states found it at least three years ago. I think South Carolina might've been the first one.

It'll get much worse.

It's going to be confined to only 15 cases, and then it will be done.
