"As bird flu cases go underreported, health officials risk being slow to notice if the virus were to become more contagious. A large surge of infections outside of farmworker communities would trigger the government’s flu surveillance system, but by then it might be too late to contain."

I think I hit my stride on this retirement thing: Schedule of the day....Start some laundry, play with the dogs. Make chicken tinga tacos later and begin ETOH titration when cooking commences. Play Starfield....Take old guy drugs and generally relax.

@GottaLaff I thought you might be interested in this. Although good words on it's face, I can see ways that the process could be manipulated. Available for Notice & Comment before 16AUG.
Memorial Day is for remembrance of those that gave their all for the United States. Those individuals may not have had any influence on policy, but they did their duty.
I wish we had not lost some policy, set to a higher standard. I wish that many officers and enlisted personnel had learned the lessons of inclusion for all of the people...
A little kebab. Marinate of kefir, turmeric, and a variety of other seasonings. On naan, dresses with tzatziki, and feta.
Waiting to download Homeworld 3. Yay, retirement.

Today #CDC is supposed to launch a new dashboard showing where #influenza A virus — at this time of year probably #H5N1 #birdflu — is showing up in wastewater. Hopefully we can get a better idea in real time where cow outbreaks are occurring. Maybe. https://www.statnews.com/2024/05/13/cdc-wastewater-surveillance-dashboard-bird-flu-outbreak-monitor/

"Since late March, 42 infected herds have been found in nine states, according to the the US Department of Agriculture. Only one person has been found to be infected with H5N1 after contact with infected cows, and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention says the current risk to public health is low, although it is working with states to monitor people with animal exposures."

Over the past 27 years, #H5N1 #birdflu has repeatedly defied #flu dogma, doing things scientists thought #influenza viruses couldn't or didn't do. We would be foolhardy to assume it doesn't have more tricks up its sleeve. https://www.statnews.com/2024/05/09/bird-flu-upends-avian-influenza-dogma/
