@ubiqunity This is the US Pandemic Playbook used in 2003, 2009 & 2012 to avoid bothering 350 million Americans how to be expert epidemiologists, that POTUS45 & POTUS46 refuse to implement! Go find “lockdown of the healthy”. Then go google “lockdown” in history. phe.gov/Preparedness/i…

@ubiqunity You heard that vaccines reduce, but don’t eliminate the risk of #LongCOVID right? There was zero protection of the XBB vaccines by the time they were released. We cannot pharmaceutical our way out of this mess. ELI5 thread:

@RickABright @EckerleIsabella @WHO None of these systems failed because of poor structure, they failed because one nation opted out of international Public Health collaboration.

For anyone who needs to hear it: Asymptomatic transmission of covid has been well established. It's also airborne. And causes long-covid / post covid conditions in lots of people. Without a change to our strategy, disability, misery, and economic harm will continue to rise.
“Infection and replication of this virus in the C6/36 mosquito cell line was confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR. However, transmission by mosquitoes was not evaluated, and further research is needed” Great news! There’s zero evidence! #PrecautionaryPrinciple

@RealCheckMarker @ubiqunity You notice I am referring to the future whereas you are referring to the past. Covid is not going away. Ever.
@RealCheckMarker @ubiqunity It's not frustration, it's biology.
@RealCheckMarker Do you think if we did real lockdowns for a month we could eradicate it?
@RealCheckMarker @ubiqunity We can't do anything. Covid is now an organism that will be with the earth for as long as mammals exist. End. The idea we will eradicated it is like saying we'll eradicate rats or ants.
@DrEricDing @HarmonyUsInc What about EU vaccinated (and non-refrigerated [at the store]) eggs? Not a huge egg fan, let alone a raw egg fan. I'm just wondering if there's a difference you're aware of.
Safety of milk from H5N1 has two parts: (1) Milk from sick cows is not used, (2) Pasteurization kills most pathogens Finding H5N1 fragments in milk shows (1) milk from sick cows IS being used. So safety is from (2) which is "likely"—not guaranteed—Data is not available.
Testing conducted by the FDA on pasteurized commercially purchased milk has found genetic evidence of the H5N1 bird flu virus. ➡️But the testing, done by PCR cannot distinguish between live virus or fragments of viruses that could have been killed by the pasteurization process.…
10) Make sure you cook egg’s thoroughly. No runny eggs. Beware of homemade mayonnaise too that uses raw eggs. And please stop drinking raw egg protein shakes. (You also run a risk of biotin deficiency with raw eggs 🥚).
9) speaking of ingesting the virus, public health officials have already warned about avian flu from raw and undercooked eggs. So ingesting the virus is a thing. And by *cooked* eggs 🥚— we mean no “runny” eggs with undercooked egg yolk! Fully cooked eggs 🍳 only folks.
This is a must read if you drink milk or eat milk dairy products.
Testing conducted by the FDA on pasteurized commercially purchased milk has found genetic evidence of the H5N1 bird flu virus. ➡️But the testing, done by PCR cannot distinguish between live virus or fragments of viruses that could have been killed by the pasteurization process.…
This, right here, two years ago, was the moment the CDC should have started educating & preparing practitioners and the public. Alas, public health is tragically underfunded & neglected, we live & die for corporate profits, & the food safety system is in shambles. The horses,…
An incarcerated American forced to cull infected flocks tested positive for bird flu in 2022. “CDC has urged Medical Practitioners on Friday to be on the lookout for people who might have contracted H5N1 Bird Flu from Cows.” The CDC should have been educating & preparing…
I hope companies are developing Low-cost, in-home, rapid tests for influenza. Some multiplex options already in Europe that detect flu A/B, RSV, & Covid. It would be a good plan to find a way to ensure they can detect H5N1 and bring them to the US. @FDADeviceInfo @US_FDA…
But, wait a second...the CDC is JUST looking at ER visits. @RickABright @michaelmina_lab both expressed concern over that. And now we have lots of probable cases with workers not wanting to get tested because of low milk prices. AND we have waste water spiking? /🧵
9) Always remember that USDA is a special interest commerce agency for promoting agriculture—not public health. ➡️Remember how famously “milk builds strong bones” propaganda? Well I have bad news for big dairy🥛… It doesn’t. Bonus: find the Easter egg🥚— pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37706070/
8) Famously, the FDA has said in the past that “it is not practical to target viral pathogens in cooking or pasteurization because of… heat resistance”. And the FDA quote is a blanket statement without sentence conditions. This is directly quoted from a FDA document!
11) Folks—FDA says about pasteurization: “It is not practical to target viral pathogens in cooking or pasteurization processes because of their extreme heat resistance. Viral pathogens should be controlled through a rigorous sanitation regime” Page 1: fda.gov/files/food/pub…
7) I first raised my concern 3 weeks ago when avian flu first started emerging in dairy cows 🐄 in the U.S. - I think we need to be very careful because fat globules can protect viruses in high fat milk and still survive after pasteurization (in food and mouth disease virus).
⚠️WAIT HOLD UP—Pasteurization of milk actually may **not** neutralize all viruses sufficiently to stop infectivity—“many viruses cannot”. It seems that fat globules in whole milk and 2% fat milk can protect viruses from high temperature pasteurization (dairy research shows for…
6) Pasteurization (basic type) is “very likely” to inactivate H5N1 says the FDA. We also thought COVID was very likely not transmitting asymptomatically (it was), not likely airborne (it was), not likely lead to reinfection (it did), not likely have breakthrough infections (it…
