„H5N1 weitet sein Wirtsspektrum ziemlich dramatisch aus, und dabei nimmt es Mutationen auf, die das #Virus in Säugetieren besser funktionieren lassen“, sagte Worobey. Mit dieser gewissen Vor-Anpassung an Säugetiere steige das Risiko für den Menschen. So begännen Pandemien."

folks really gotta start questioning how radical they really are because not being covid cautious during this mass disabling event is at odds with being inclusive, accessible, intentional, community oriented, creating safe space, practicing consent, siding with the marginalized.

‘We might die because you won’t wear a mask’: A plea to health-care workers - Healthy Debate
Let’s start protecting people in health-care settings as that’s where people should have the best understanding of a viral threat.Maddi Dellplain (Healthy Debate)
"Die Versäumnisse seien eine Folge der Angst der Verantwortlichen vor der Lobby von Milchbauern und Co. Zu diesem Schluss kommt ein Bericht des Think-Tanks Center for Strategic and International Studies (CSIS). Die Milchindustrie sei in den USA ein Milliardenbusiness. Niemand habe Bauern, Molkereien & viele andere Beteiligte verärgern wollen, indem man ihnen temporär das Einkommen schmälere oder Auflagen mache"

Dr. Mark discusses dog flu symptoms, prevention, and treatment—and what you should know about the #BirdFlu.

"With all the recent stories about the outbreaks of #AvianFlu among #cats, we are often asked about how prone our dogs are to this new variant.
"It is not impossible for a dog to catch bird flu, but it is extremely unlikely. The dog flu that was first identified in Chicago in the US is caused by the #H3N2 variant, but the avian flu that has caused the cases in cats after eating raw food or drinking raw milk is caused by a different variant, #H5N1.
"The only H5N1 cases that have been identified in dogs involved direct contact. One was in #Thailand and was probably spread to the dog after eating an infected #duck, and the other was in Canada, where the dog only got sick after eating an infected wild #goose. No cases have been reported after eating raw dog food.
"The other causes of flu in dogs are much more common than the H5N1 variant, and a vaccine for those types has already been developed. Canine flu (#CIV) is caused by H3N8 or H3N2, unlike the H5N1 strain that is making eggs so expensive."

We need mandatory masking in healthcare, and we need it now.
A respirator protects against Covid, measles & more.
There’s no excuse to expose patients when we have the tools to prevent it:

The FDA just cancelled an advisory meeting to discuss next season’s flu shots, mere days after a CDC vaccine advisory meeting was also cancelled.
RFK Jr is anti vaccine and anti science. His appointment to the head of HHS will have devastating consequences.
If you’re not up to date on your boosters, get them now.
If you’re unsure, talk with your doctor.
No matter what happens, remember that a well fitted mask like an N95 can provide excellent protection against airborne viruses and bacteria.
It’s time to mask up.

Dozens of dead geese found in #NewJersey town’s parks test positive for #BirdFlu, officials say
Updated: Feb. 25, 2025
By Eric Conklin | NJ Advance Media for NJ.com
"Dozens of dead geese found in parts of a New Jersey borough’s parks have tested positive for the avian flu, leading local officials to keep the properties closed and ask that a popular event be moved.
"Allentown Borough officials posted a notice to their website on Thursday that Dr. Farmer’s Park, Pete Sensi Park and a portion of Heritage Park will remain closed after some 30 dead geese were removed earlier this month.
"Local officials were informed Thursday by the New Jersey Department of Environmental Protection that the birds removed by a contractor tested positive for #H5N1 the virus that causes the illness, said Borough Administrator Laurie Roth. The decease was suspected in the deaths earlier this month.
"The virus was suspected in the deaths in Allentown, as well as several other municipalities in Monmouth County, where dead geese have appeared over the past weeks.
"The parks will remain closed indefinitely, Roth said."

"veterinarians were conducting research on a highly secure chicken research farm—the birds there were not allowed out of their cages or barns. The water came from a secure well and was filtered to remove pathogens. The barns have large fans that create a one-way airflow, and the entire facility is surrounded by a highly secure fence.
Also, no employees came into contact with any other birds when not on duty. Still, the farm experienced an infection. The veterinarians suggest the only possibility left is that the virus was carried aloft by the wind and wafted into the barn, settling on the captive birds."

Possible evidence of windborne H5N1 viral infections in chickens
A team of government veterinarians with the State Veterinary Institute Prague in the Czech Republic has found possible evidence of windborne H5N1 infections in chickens.Bob Yirka (Phys.org)
"some reports have proposed that windborne spread plays a significant role in IAV [Influenza A Virus] transmission over longer distances under suitable weather conditions.
➡️ In studies of the severe H7N7 HPAI [Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza] outbreak in the Netherlands in 2003, one study claimed that wind spread accounted for 18% and another 24% of transmission events up to 25 km.
➡️ Similarly, during the 2007 equine H3N8 influenza outbreak in Australia, 81% of infections within a cluster of 437 horse farms were attributed to windborne spread over a distance of 1-2 km.
➡️ Around the same time, the serological screening of turkeys in Minnesota in 2007-08 revealed that turkey premises within a 1.9 km radius of swine farms were most likely to test seropositive for H3N2 and H1N1 IAVs, thereby suggesting windborne transmission.
➡️ And during the 2014-15 multistate H5N2 HPAI outbreak in the USA, it was estimated that up to 39% of farms in Iowa alone could have experienced windborne infection within a radius of 8.5 km"

😷 Police are not doctors
😷 Many disabilities are invisible
😷 Disabled people don’t live in a bubble. I need my friends and caregivers to mask to protect me
😷 Everyone should have the right to protect their health, you shouldn’t have to already be sick to be permitted to mask
😷 Criminalizing masks sends a message that maskers are “bad”. It emboldens anti-maskers and increases odds of aggression
The reality is that mask bans are discriminatory, ableist and eugenicist. They push disabled people out of public spaces. They put marginalized and POC at increased risk of police profiling.
There’s no official policy for a medical exemption either, it’s at police discretion.
If you’re stopped and questioned, you will have to prove you’re masking for the “right reasons”
I’m more than willing to admit that if I were stopped by a cop for masking, I would appear nervous, shaky, tachycardic and probably “suspicious”.
Not because I’m doing anything wrong, but because my illnesses do not respond well to stress and the police are stressful.
It’s not right to put the onus on the masker to defend their right to mask. We’re still in a global pandemic. Texas has a measles outbreak. There’s tuberculosis in Kansas. Bird flu is spreading and it’s the worst year for influenza A in over a decade.
Masks are a public health tool. They’re a disability accommodation. They should NOT be criminalized.

If you want to show solidarity with disabled people? Wear a mask.
If you want to protect your own health? Wear a mask.
If you recognize that no one is coming to save us? Wear a mask.

This is what happens when you move fast and break things.
The CDC is gagged. The FDA is too. Egg prices have skyrocketed because the U.S. aren’t bothering to try and contain H5N1.
Pandemic prevention or preparedness is not a priority to this administration, and it’s going to cost lives.
Remember that a well fitted respirator and eye protection can help prevent bird flu. It’s time to mask up.

Support independent journalists who are doing the same.
With the CDC muzzled we don’t have the line of sight we should on outbreaks and threats to the population
What we do have is alot of doctors and nurses sharing serious concerns about how sick their influenza A patients are
We do have a significant egg shortage because of unmitigated bird flu
We do have measles and TB outbreaks.
The good news? A well fitted respirator can protect you from all these things.
It may be our best and last line of protection as it doesn’t depend on government or public health for accessibility.
Mask up and keep yourself and your community safe!

"#Veterinarians and laboratory diagnosticians are fielding reports of death losses in cat populations linked to avian influenza infections.
"Beginning in 2022, an #H5N1 subtype of highly pathogenic avian influenza (abbreviated as HPAI) virus caused death losses in domestic turkeys and chickens in South Dakota and elsewhere in the United States, an outbreak that continues. The HPAI virus causes respiratory and multiple organ failure in affected birds, typically appearing as increased numbers of dead birds in large commercial operations, as well as smaller backyard flocks. Deaths in wild birds, typically migrating waterfowl but also other bird species, have been observed at the same time, as well as spillover of the virus into mammals, such as raccoons, foxes, skunks, and other species.
"In Spring 2024, the HPAI virus began infecting #DairyCows, causing drops in milk production and other signs of illness. Unlike infections in other species, widespread death losses have not been associated with HPAI infections in dairy cows.
"About the same time as its emergence in dairy cows, the HPAI virus was implicated in deaths of domestic cats in the vicinity of affected farms. Most affected cats showed #neurologic signs, such as #tremors or #seizures, for a short period of time before dying.
"Since that time, three cases of substantial death losses in groups of outdoor domestic cats in South Dakota have been described. In each of these cases, there has been no apparent link to dairy cows, other livestock, or domestic poultry."
