So... bird flu?

The DO NOT COMPLY weirdos are out in full force right now. For those who are much smarter than me (i.e. nearly everyone on this board) what is the current status and are we staring down a barrel here?

We’re always staring down a barrel, it’s just a matter of luck. I’m at “somewhat concerned” personally.

From what I’ve read nothing to worry about

That’s what they said about covid initially.

Haha, oh wow, I didn’t even read the whole thing before posting:

Missouri has not reported any infected herds. The hospitalized patient was tested as part of routine flu surveillance. The infection worried experts, because the individual had no known contact with cattle or birds.

We’re fucked
