Public Service Announcement

 

Morning.

As the H5N1 (Avian Influenza, or Bird Flu)  jumps from fowl to mammals, the outbreak has not only spread rapidly (causing egg prices to soar), last week the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) instructed hospitals to test patients because the required treatment is different than the standard flu shot. One cause is consuming or being exposed to raw milk or poultry products. The National Institutes of Health (NIH) and CDC (along with other medical agencies) release the Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report (MMWR) to share the information to help medical personnel and laboratories to remain current on data. The MMWR is released every Thursday at 1:00pm.

Yesterday, there was no report. According to MedPage Today, Forbes, and Health Policy Watch, The White House halted research grants and issued a gag order "until a review can be done."


Do not drink raw milk. Do not consume raw or undercooked eggs or poultry.








This has been a Public Service Announcement

Or the fifth day in and look at all the chaos already. I do not understand once again the mentality. Would be ashamed of an airplane fell out of the sky and landed on Congress and the White House wouldn't it???

Meanwhile that's exactly how I learned play my Fisher Price xylophone. Some days I still do.

Thank you for this PSA!

Of course Trump halted research and reports on bird flu that don't benefit him personally. Never mind that 66 people in the U.S. have died from bird flu so far. What's Trump spending his time on? He launched a cryptocurrency coin, 80% of which is owned by him personally, that has generated $8 billion. I'll give you one guess as to what the Trump administration's policy will be on the legitimacy of cryptocurrency.

OK! Now this issue will easily be solved by your new secretary of health, RFK who will fastly erase this new warning saying that it's a fake one or not existing etc..
America will be sicker again and again with polio etc..

Well with fuck ups like RFK Jr running things at Trump’s instigations and behests, what else is to be expected. This regime is going to kill millions more Americans with this sick and wanton ignorance just as they killed one million with their criminally obscene mishandling of Covid-19. :(

Thank you for that PSA and the very delicious eye candy that came along with it.

Um, Where does the stupid end and the deaths begin? Isn't it a blessing to have incompetent leaders in our new government making this important information not available to the public until THEY review it? I see some brain-worm riddled JFK Jr. logic to this decision. Yes, can't trust scientific research anymore. Remember their take on vaccinations 5 years ago? Bad, bad vaccines, Bill Gates is injecting us with microchips to read our minds(what little there is). Let's wait until thousands of people die needlessly, which actually happened! Great leadership from our government during the pandemic. Here we go again. My brain is a tied up knot of incredulity and wonderment.

Thx but I only drink man's milk!

whkattk said...

That's what I've been thinking, too.

LOL

whkattk said...

You're welcome

whkattk said...

He will do whatever benefits him and his Billionaire Bros. Crypto is good now that he's launched his own.

whkattk said...

It's already happening due to the anti-vaxers. Now they've quietly ceased distribution of HIV meds - because RFK says HIV doesn't cause AIDS.

whkattk said...

Yes, it will. So much being done that the media is not paying attention to.

whkattk said...

You're welcome. Buckle in - there're more to come.

whkattk said...

They have ceased the distribution of HIV drugs....

whkattk said...

LOL. Well, buckle in, because there's a bill introduced to ban that.

It speaks volumes about where our country is going when I get better health and safety advice from an adult-oriented blog.

I will continue to attempt to stay abreast of these things. When RFK gets confirmed it will get a lot worse.
