   Does that mean you shouldn't travel home for the holidays? Well, it's a complicated thing to answer.

   There's almost no risk of *you* developing transmissible h5n1 over the holidays.

   But there's a risk that, society-wise, a highly transmissible and high morbidity h5n1 variant could make the jump to humans *because of* the holidays.

   So when we get *back* from the holidays, that might start to spread.

   #hongkong is doing great on the holidays front, we get Christian holidays and traditional Chinese holidays *and* Buddhist holidays.

   So we have Easter this weekend, Ching Ming next Thursday and Buddha's Birthday the month after.

   Also we have Labor Day on the original May First as declared by the Second International, not for Chinese reasons, but for British reasons. The Mainland gets the whole week off.
