Giant poultry companies say #birdflu outbreaks are out of their control. But their very practices are largely to blame. Their solution? Kill infected animals by the millions w/taxpayers footing the bill, & keep raking in billions in profits. @FarmActionUS bit.ly/3JDT3kh
The FDA just banned labs like mine to create a test for a bird flu. More regs that are anti-consumer but don’t worry there’s an exclusion for academic medical centers like they’re always are. So everybody can wait in line at their local university for an overpriced & slow test.

Given how widespread #H5N1 in cows is, it seems unrealistic to eradicate the virus anymore. I wonder what the impact will be if 1) it establishes itself as an animal diseases (for animal safety, food production, trade, need for a vaccine?) 2) adapts to a mammalian host. Not good.

WHO says the risk of H5N1 bird flu is "evolving with the virus and needs real-time monitoring." "WHO and partners are asking countries to rapidly share information to enable this."

Viral particles of H5N1 bird flu have been found in commercial milk but the FDA says it's safe to drink. Testing is currently underway to confirm pasteurization killed the virus. Results will be made public in the coming days or weeks.

The USDA held back information and scrubbed crucial location information to protect dairy industry. Agriculture’s regulatory bubble is driving us straight into faster spread, mutations, and spillover risk of bird flu strains with pandemic potential.

Our investigation of @alexandre_farm has exposed hundreds of likely individual violations of the USDA Organic & Certified Humane programs. These certifications are propping up an inherently inhumane industry: factory farm dairy. It's time to #ditchdairy bit.ly/4aD4gxB
One of the best ways to tell whether #cows on Alexandre farms were mistreated/unhealthy is to compare to other dairies the average # of lactations when cows are shipped and no longer healthy enough to produce milk worth more than the feed the cow eats. theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/…

In our recently published investigation of so-called “humane,” “organic,” and “regenerative” dairy, @alexandre_farm, whistleblower photos and interviews revealed systematic and widespread abuse, neglect, and mistreatment of animals. Here are 4 incidents & 1 question. (1 of 6)
The H5N1 virus can mutate and become more equipped to infect humans with each new infection, scientists say, according to Slate. “Flu is so unpredictable,” says epidemiologist Stephen Morse of Columbia University. “But it’s clear that this virus has been evolving considerably…

A lot goes into using food tech to reduce animal meat demand. A lower tech approach--simply modifying choice architecture at point of purchase--is also making a tangible impact on consumer behavior. @AggieDeSousa tells the tale: bloomberg.com/news/articles/…
"All of Frerick's barons owe their success to deregulation, but the McCloskey dairy empire was built by devouring small farms, using a massive, inhumane warehousing model." @devintoshea reads Austin Frerick's "Barons." lareviewofbooks.org/article/muckra…
Giant poultry companies say #birdflu outbreaks are out of their control. But their very practices are largely to blame. Their solution? Kill infected animals by the millions w/taxpayers footing the bill, & keep raking in billions in profits. @FarmActionUS bit.ly/3JDT3kh
So it turns out bird flu has been ripping through US dairy factories for months and we’re just realizing this now because the USDA exempted farms from testing and even concealed data. The underrated context to all this is that Biden’s Secretary of Agriculture is a milk lobbyist.
NEW: Bird flu may have been circling in cattle as early as December. 1. USDA announced in March. 2. In April USDA shared only partial data, making it hard to track. The last thing we need is less data. 3. USDA says farmers aren’t letting them fully test nature.com/articles/d4158…
The FDA just banned labs like mine to create a test for a bird flu. More regs that are anti-consumer but don’t worry there’s an exclusion for academic medical centers like they’re always are. So everybody can wait in line at their local university for an overpriced & slow test.
Bird flu. We are sleeping. Learning zero. Our “stockpiles” of vaccine are a weakly immunogenic two-shot vaccine which is mostly not ready and can treat a tiny percent of the population. Our anti-viral stockpiles are small. So many warning signs.
It appears that intact and biodiverse ecosystems provide a “dilution effect” that dampens viral spread. Our current system of industrial farming, which packs millions of genetically identical birds in one confined space, does the exact opposite. From 2022: trib.al/bBW0JMC
On today’s What Next TBD: What would it take to sell certified “cruelty-free” cow’s milk? For starters, a regulatory body to certify it. slate.trib.al/RSywe75
Once again I'd like to remind everyone that the current consumption of livestock & livestock products in the global North isn't the result of unfettered market forces but of policies that made/make such products artificially cheap via subsidies & socialized negative env'l costs.
Dudes will edit cows before shutting down coal-fired power plants.
The long-term solution eventually becomes the only viable solution. Every time.
If highly pathogenic avian influenza virus H5N1 becomes established in the cattle population of a country, a short-term solution is to vaccinate their cattle, plus trade restrictions to other countries. A long-term solution is fundamental restructuring of the livestock industry.
But the average size of our buildings stopped being limited by technology, and started being limited by regulation. In many places, the height of new buildings has *shrunk*! The NIMBY movement has limited the vertical supply of housing in the last few decades, pushing prices up
Just made a discovery at the proposed kitty litter mining exploration site. They claim despite drilling 200' down they will not hit groundwater. I just found a previously undocumented wetland uphill from the drill sites, indicating a high likelihood of them hitting groundwater!

Listen I don’t KNOW I have a monopoly on bringing Idahoans to NPR/DC but I’ve got to to be up there 😊 Truly what energizes me 99% of the time is getting to see more kids from Idaho (journalism or not) get to come through these spaces! Also not even all of them cause pic limits!!
Scientists have created a transgenic cow that produces insulin in its milk. But to quote one of the researchers, “‘Can we?’ and ‘Should we?’ are two different things.” New story from @eglassmanhughes: ambrook.com/research/techn…
WHO says the risk of H5N1 bird flu is "evolving with the virus and needs real-time monitoring." "WHO and partners are asking countries to rapidly share information to enable this."
Probably the process of pasteurisation is sufficient to inactivate an enveloped virus. Would I drink such milk? No. Not really keen on BSL-3 pathogens in my morning coffee even if “ just” PCR + (for transparency I don’t drink milk anyway)
The discovery of #H5N1 #birdflu in a significant portion of commercially purchased milk suggests the outbreak in cows is much larger than we know, scientists who've been doing this work tell @MeganMolteni. statnews.com/2024/04/25/h5n…
