2/ "So, to recap:
Normal people aren't panicking. The politicians are panicking. Their super donors are panicking. The dairy industry is panicking. The beef industry is panicking. They're not panicking about avian flu. They're not worried your cat is going to bring home bird flu. They're not worried your kid is going to drink bird flu milk & die. They're worried about money.
So, they're going to lie as long as they can. They're going to go through this charade of testing cattle, only in places where they absolutely have to. They're going to pretend they don't know that human transmission of bird flu is standing right around the corner, & it might've already started happening. They're going to act like everything is fine, until so many people start getting sick & dying that they have to do something, & what they'll do is mainly manage the panic they project onto us."
