Usar mascarilla es subversivo.

El COVID no ha terminado:
• El 50% de las infecciones son asintomáticas.
• Mínimo 10% de las infecciones acaban en COVID persistente.
• Las vacunas no evitan ni reinfecciones, ni el contagio, ni las secuelas persistentes del COVID.
• Las reinfecciones nos destrozan. No hay forma de “entrenar” el sistema inmunológico porque no es un músculo. hay una idea errónea común de que la exposición a gérmenes dañinos fortalece el sistema inmunológico. las enfermedades virales como COVID, gripe, sarampión debilitan el sistema inmunológico, dejando la posibilidad de daños duraderos. La realidad es que no construyes tu inmunidad con infecciones repetidas, las vacunas fortalecen el sistema inmunológico enseñándole a reconocer los patógenos sin todos los riesgos. Centrarnos en la prevención de las infecciones es clave.
• Un test de antígeno rápido solo logra detectar con éxito alrededor del 60% de las infecciones tempranas sintomáticas y aproximadamente el 22% de las infecciones asintomáticas. Los PCR y test moleculares son los test con más precisión.
• El COVID se propaga y mueve como el humo de un cigarro, piensa en las personas de tu alrededor y en ti como personas que están todo el día fumando, se hace más visual entender cómo se mueve el COVID.
• En las infecciones con síntomas se tarda un par de días en dar los síntomas lo que quiere decir que estás por lo menos un par de días infectando sin saberlo. Eres infeccioso de COVID por lo menos 10 días.

WHO, @fao.org , WOAH updated their assessment of the risk #BirdFlu poses to human health.

Based on the information we have, the risk for the general public is low. The risk is low-to-moderate for people who work with potentially infected animals.

Investigate every human case to rule out the possibility of human-to-human spread

www.who.intUpdated joint FAO/WHO/WOAH public health assessment of recent influenza A(H5) virus events in animals and peopleAt the present time, based on available information, FAO-WHO-WOAH assess the global public health risk of influenza A(H5N1) viruses to be low, while the risk of infection for occupationally exposed persons is low to moderate depending on the risk mitigation measures in place and the local avian influenza epidemiological situation. Transmission between animals continues to occur and, to date, a growing yet still limited number of human infections are being reported. Although additional human infections associated with exposure to infected animals or contaminated environments are expected to occur, the overall public health impact of such infections at a global level, at the present time, is minor.

FFS , and we have a couple of idiots in charge;

“ State officials have confirmed cases of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza (HPAI) – also known as bird flu – in mammals such as foxes, raccoons, striped skunks and domestic cats in Deaf Smith, Hansford, Lubbock, Ochiltree, Parmer and Randall counties in the Texas Panhandle.”

Regardless of whether #H5N1 jumps from person to person sooner, later or never, it’s raging in wild animals.

In the US, thousands of birds of more than 160 native species, including mallards, sparrows, pigeons and bald eagles, have been infected. So have hundreds of mammals of more than two dozen native species, including raccoons, bears and opossums.

Some of these get sick, and some die.

Wait.

Someone posted about people decorating potatoes because egg prices are so high.

Then many many (read "ALL") comments blaming Trump

This started long before January...

*flailing Kermit arms*

#USDA confirms one more #H5N1 #birdflu infected dairy herd in California. The state's total is now 764, which is 79% of the CA herds. The state says 561 of those herds have recovered & are out of quarantine.
Cumulative national total: 1,021 herds in 17 states. aphis.usda.gov/livestock-poult

How dangerous is it? Where did it come from? #H5N1 influenza’s origins stretch back to the 1990s, and key events paved the way for the outbreak we’re seeing today.

“This is the largest animal disease outbreak we’ve ever had,” Maurice Pitesky, a veterinary researcher at the University of California, Davis, tells @KnowableMag

Puedes estar sufriendo de disonancia cognitiva si estás participando en la programación de eventos dedicados a la liberación pero ignoras la interseccionalidad entre la justicia para discapacitados, el racismo médico y los impactos desproporcionados del COVID en las comunidades más marginalizadas, incluidas las queer.
