Experts say current US outbreak is unlikely to end without intervention with further mutation of virus likely

Summary

A new H5N1 bird flu variant has become “endemic in cows,” with cases detected in Nevada and Arizona, raising concerns about human transmission.

Experts warn that without intervention, the outbreak will continue, but Trump has cut CDC staff and halted flu vaccination campaigns.

The virus’s spread coincides with a severe flu season, increasing the risk of mutation.

The administration has also stopped sharing flu data with the WHO and shifted its containment strategy away from culling infected poultry, raising fears of inadequate response.

    Pumpkin seed milk is so good. Too bad it’s hard to come by. Harder still for zero sugar versions.

        I got it once at Walmart. That was a few years ago. Haven’t seen it since.

        As for zero sugar version, I doubt it exists unless you make it yourself. But I’m too lazy.
