Because idiots politicized Covid, so now everything health related is political.

I don't know how much longer I can stand living in an era where everything is politicized.
For Christ's sake even killing puppies is political alignment issue now.

Edit, this appears to have posted twice due to my bad internet so please disregard my other reply.

I haven't been following this too closely. Don't tell me that people are coming out in support of her for that.

That doesn’t sound good. Just the past week I read about it showing up in dolphins, walruses, now cats…

I can avoid the first two just fine. But cats is cause for concern.

My understanding is both cats and cows have never been shown to carry any influenza strain before these past weeks. Very encouraging indeed.

No matter where this is posted, it's hopping species like its playing a game of frogger. That's terrifying. How long until humans start showing symptoms?

This is the best summary I could come up with:

On March 16, cows on a Texas dairy farm began showing symptoms of a mysterious illness now known to be H5N1 bird flu.

They developed depressed mental states, stiff body movements, loss of coordination, circling, copious discharge from their eyes and noses, and blindness.

In a study published today in the journal Emerging Infectious Diseases, researchers in Iowa, Texas, and Kansas found that the cats had H5N1 not just in their lungs but also in their brains, hearts, and eyes.

The findings are similar to those seen in cats that were experimentally infected with H5N1, aka highly pathogenic avian influenza virus (HPAI).

On March 25, the US Department of Agriculture confirmed the presence of H5N1 in a dairy herd in Texas, marking the first time H5N1 had ever been known to cross over to cows.

Since then, the USDA has tallied infections in at least 34 herds in nine states: Texas, Kansas, Michigan, New Mexico, Idaho, Ohio, South Dakota, North Carolina, and Colorado.
