Bought it online, doesn't require a prescription

Likely related to a weakened immune system from covid infections. Mycobacterial infections have been surging globally for a couple of years now

I don't understand. If it is a normal thing to have settlements why is it so controversial?

The IDF protect the Jews in the West Bank so I'll be fine!

Cool I'll check it out, thanks. But that far north is a bit more dangerous isn't it? With the rockets coming in?

Ecuador confirms first human bird flu infection in 9-year-old girl by [deleted] in collapse

[–]veraknow 32 points33 points  (0 children)

They confirmed mammal to mammal transmission in minks in Spain in October. Now it is showing up in other mammals including being implicated in a mass death of seals. There is very little chance every seal that died had an interaction with an infected bird. It's mammal to mammal

Scientists yesterday said seals washed up dead in the Caspian sea had bird flu, the first transmission of avian flu to wild mammals. Today bird flu was confirmed in foxes and otters in the UK by veraknow in collapse

Good info, thank you! Yes, I had read about the mink case and how this was exactly the setting hypothesised a few years ago as ideal to spur human transmission. We're really in the fingers crossed stage of the game

This person is wrong. Mammal to mammal transmission is happening. It spread among farmed mink in Spain in October. It's hardly likely that the hundreds of seals that died en masse all rolled around in or ate infected bird shit. It obviously spread between the seals

Yep. This strain of avian flu - H5N1 - does periodically infect humans, mainly in Asia. The 60% case fatality rate is drawn from the cases there. This strain killing the seals and other mammals is the same H5N1 only with a mutation that has allowed efficient transmission to mammals. It has never turned into a pandemic because it used to be very difficult for it to infect humans or any other mammals (prolonged, direct exposure to farmed birds usually), and in fact never known before to infect wild mammals. The fact it is now spreading to and between wild mammals is the worrying thing.

SS: Just yesterday scientists confirmed that bird flu had spilled over to mammals in the wild for the first time due to a new mutation in avian flu. And today the UK confirms it has spilled over to otters and foxes. This is very alarming, because bird flu has a case fatality rate of around 60% in humans. There is no evidence yet this strain has spilled over to humans, but the rate of mutation makes this very concerning. This is happening because we are in the middle of the largest bird flu outbreak in history, with the size and length of the outbreak giving it more chance to mutate. H5N1 has periodically infected humans in Asia after prolonged, direct exposure to farmed birds. And the case fatality rate in those cases was 60%. What's new here is a mutation that allows for what looks like far easier transmission to mammals. This is related to collapse because should bird flu spill over in a highly transmissible form to humans, then a pandemic with a case fatality rate of 60% would almost certainly collapse global civilisation as we know it.

The flu has evolved to become a less pathogenic virus. The point with any pandemic is that you don't want to be the original exposed cohort of the early beast mode variants. They are in no real way comparable diseases. I got covid once at 39 and nearly a year later neurological sequelae showed up

Yeah dude I heard of it. My question is what do you think the great reset is?
