     @feld @justyourluck I’ve drunk raw milk too, from a literal family farm that had about a dozen Holsteins: decades before there was any sort of ideology attached or H5N1 risk. There was definitely some risk but it was unlike the modern circumstance. There is no good reason to not pasteurize milk and H5N1 is just one more pathogen in a long list that can appear in raw milk. I’d be MUCH more concerned by the risk of Listeria, Botulism, or enterohemorrhagic E. coli.

     @justyourluck @grumpybozo I grew up in a farming community and have had raw milk... but if we are going to normalize this we also need to normalize public health authorities and take precautions when these events are happening.
     
     e.g., You can eat raw eggs in Denmark without concern because they require complete destruction of flocks when salmonella is detected. We don't have the courage or the brains to do that in America because culture wars and factory farming are all in the pursuit of money anyway

     it tastes way better! also pasteurization kills most of the probiotic benefit (you can get that benefit from other fermented products though)
     
     I get raw goat milk whenever I can because it tastes so incredibly good
