   I mean, if #H5N1 becomes (or has already become) human-to-human, it'll be airborne, like covid, but less contagious; existing covid precautions should be fine?

     What precautions are you currently taking against #H5N1?

     What plans do you have in case it becomes a #pandemic?

     What new purchases have you made in preparation?

     That whole no planes bit has always amazed me. And barely automobile too. Travel was slow back then but that flu circled the planet pretty damn fast.

     Luckily it's relatively easy to lock down an island(s). I remember when Hawaii lifted their #Covid lockdown. Made me sad bcuz, well...

     Re Ill-equipped: If I remember right, the teenager in BC who had a severe case of #H5N1 got some sort of plasma treatment that requires special equipment that most hospitals have, just not enough to care for lots of ppl during a pandemic

     Just because your local hospital has the proper equipment to deal with it, you better be the only one!
