Stop #2 on the @NCDemParty’s eastern NC rural tour in📍Perquimans County! Facts: 1️⃣ Perquimans will see a 2% decline (~$250k) in state funding for K-12 public education under the NCGOP’s private voucher program 2️⃣ 792 folks got health care from Medicaid expansion! #ncpol 🤠
First stop on the @NCDemParty’s eastern NC rural tour is complete! We started this tour in📍Pasquotank County — the only county @JoeBiden carried in 2020 in the northeastern corridor. We discussed the $15mil to ECSU’s campus from this admin & how Democrats show up for rural NC!
New piece on H5N1. I've spent weeks talking with officials from the FDA, USDA, CDC, WH, ASPR, etc., and with public health and agriculture people in various states about the growing H5N1 cattle outbreak. It's not good. We're not responding properly. nytimes.com/2024/04/24/opi…
Many people are working hard, but the response is fragmented, sluggish, incomplete and important things are falling through the cracks. Information isn't being generated sufficiently fast, and it's not being shared in a timely and useful manner with scientists and the world.
With what I found out, I am convinced that the cow H5N1 outbreak has been going on for much longer than the first announcement on March 25, and that it's more widespread than the known herds. And farm owners and workers are not always testing and reporting potential cases.
As I've written many times, spillovers are common but pandemics are rare — many unusual events have to chain together. We may still get lucky with H5N1 and I certainly hope so. But pandemics are a numbers game and relying on luck while the risk increases like this is foolish.
And for the love of everything holy, public health officials should stop telling us whether to panic or not to panic. It’s not informative or useful. It’s not your job to tell people how to feel. Just provide timely, transparent information and demonstrate competent action.
After weeks of talking to on the ground people and looking at available data, I am pretty certain that the outbreak is much more widespread than official numbers. And the lack of timely sharing of data and no clear answers to many key questions is alarming. We need to step up.
Vote for and demand sensible, well-funded, prevention oriented public health. Avoid raw, unpasteurized milk or milk products! The viral load in milk from infected cows is very high, and we’re not catching them all. Don’t feed it to cats either! Cats on farms have been dying.
@zeynep Any guidance for us regular civilian suburbanites who want to start taking some reasonable precautions?
This is, ironically, both good and bad. It shows the outbreak is, indeed, much wider — and having this big an outbreak for this long without human spillover is encouraging. But only now noticing and conceding this level of spread isn’t good. Luck isn’t a plan.
A quick update: Academics who went looking for genetic traces of H5N1 in store-bought milk from 10 US states found it in nearly 40% of samples. FDA's own investigation, which aims to be a "large representative national sample," has found evidence of H5N1 in 20% of milk products.
