«Wer tote Wasser-, Raben- oder Greifvögel findet, sollte den Fund der zuständigen Veterinär- und Lebensmittelaufsicht des Bezirks melden, damit eine Untersuchung veranlasst werden kann.» Kranke oder verendete Tiere sollten auf keinen Fall angefasst & Federn nicht gesammelt werden.
Geflügelhalter würden gebeten, ihre Tiere jetzt vor dem Kontakt mit Wildvögeln zu schützen.

"Die Weltgesundheitsorganisation (WHO) betont die Notwendigkeit internationaler Zusammenarbeit, um das Risiko einer möglichen Pandemie zu minimieren. Durch Impfungen und strikte Überwachungsmaßnahmen kann die Ausbreitung der Vogelgrippe eingedämmt werden."

"Warum der kanadische Jugendliche so schwer erkrankte, ist offen. Bonnie Henry hält es Medienberichten zufolge für möglich, dass das junge Alter des Patienten eine Rolle spielte. Womöglich hätten Erwachsene, die früheren saisonalen H1N1-Grippeviren ausgesetzt waren, einen teilweisen Schutz gegen den aktuellen H5-Stamm."

Update on the Canadian teen who contracted #H5N1 #birdflu:
I spoke today with Bonnie Henry, British Columbia's health officer. She expressed cautious optimism that the lack of additional cases suggests this may have been a one-off event. https://www.statnews.com/2024/11/13/bird-flu-canada-teenager-infected-different-strain-than-dairy-cattle/


“Very concerning severe case of bird flu in a Canadian teen.

We need leadership now to prepare for a potential #H5N1 pandemic.”— Rick Bright

It’s not clear how he/she contracted it. Canada has had no cases reported in dairy cattle, but wild birds have tested positive.

Three dozen contacts of the patient have all tested negative.

We need to pray for this teen and we need to get a better handle on this uncontrolled outbreak of H5N1 virus on U.S farms.

Infektionsrate: 7%

"Forscher fürchten, dass sich das #Virus besser an Säugetiere anpassen kann, wenn es verbreitet in ihnen zirkuliert. Eine #Studie zeigte im August eine Übertragung von Säugetier zu Säugetier, auch zwischen Tierarten, etwa von Kühen auf Katzen. Mutationen des Virus, die zu einer verbesserten Übertragbarkeit von #H5N1 auf den Menschen führen würden, wurden bisher nicht entdeckt"

"degradation of PPE is not uncommon when workers are in close proximity to contaminated milk or animal manure"

I did think ethanol degrades electret respirators (N95s) but is soured milk really offgassing so much?

And proximity to manure - does methane or something degrade electret material?

"with almost any infectious disease, but especially one that is respiratory in nature, asymptomatic cases of infection are “absolutely anticipated.”"

orly

"“We will have a bird flu pandemic,” Robert Redfield, former director of the CDC, bluntly predicted in a television interview in June. “It’s not a question of if; it’s more a question of when … Once the virus gains the ability to attach to the human receptor and then go human to human, that’s when you’re going to have the pandemic.”"

strong words from a person who doesn't need to mince to keep a job

"“I don’t think it’s a foregone conclusion that H5N1 is going to be the cause of the next pandemic,"

says someone with a John Hopkins job to lose.

"“It can be probably hard to use a lot of this PPE,”"

Ag workers aren't toddlers. They can don and doff. They can't fit test without access to fit testing equipment but that's not on them, that's on the agricultural industry to provide.
