Anybody have info on asymptomatic #H5N1 in chickens?

Got chickens coming into our yard everyday 😐

15 & 16 year olds though are ALL aware...

@1goodtern: "Do you know anyone who's been affected by it afterwards?"

15/16 year old: "Everyone, man... Everyone."

6,7,8 year olds don't even KNOW what #Covid is...

From a thread on x (https://x.com/1goodtern/status/1966483740479123566) by @1goodtern

So this little guy was chilling ☀️ with his eyes closed behind my front tire.

Slow reactions, turns out one eye closed, the other open & a little wet spot on his side.

Probably injured but can't rule out sick so he's gotta go. Daughter caught him with a bowl and tossed him into the woods. Sprayed aqueous ozone where he was resting & bottom of our shoes. I feel ok with this level of safe.

#HantaVirus #H5N1 #BirdFlu or caught by a cat or bird? 🤷♀️

Heads up #Cheese lovers!

You might not buy raw milk but do you know if you're aged cheese is made from raw milk?

Aging might not be enough to eliminate #H5N1 #BirdFlu viruses in raw-milk cheese

Well done #RollingStone well done

👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Um...

"Trump Admin Shifting Away From Depopulation (culling/killing) for #H5N1 #BirdFlu"

"and rely instead on ‘biosecurity and medication’ to contain outbreaks"

Biosecurity is already being implemented!

And people don't want to buy chickens with antibiotics as it is, so ...

Yeah we'll see how this goes. 😳

I hadn't put much thought into #Covid in deer... maybe #H5N1... till now I guess...

Captive deer in Texas show evidence of widespread COVID exposure

"...and found more mutations than expected compared to the same virus in humans."

"In Texas, captive deer are found in more than 1,000 facilities with 100 to300 animals each..."

"...may serve as a reservoir for the virus across North America..."

I do wonder about the steam coming up from the sick chicken as you stand above the pan cooking it, and whether the pathogen can survive that and infect you. Slow and low cooking, fast and high... So many different techniques people use. Is one method more risky or safer? Covered in an oven I suppose or an instant pot or similar.

This is concerning.

I don't think anyone has gotten sick much less died from EATING sick chickens...

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!

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.
@sabik

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?

Good article to throw at those who argue that letting kids get infected (colds, gastroenteritis, fever episodes, acute otitis media (earache), tonsilitis, and pneumonia) is good for their immune system...

If you're so inclined to try to educate them...

Early-life infection burden continues throughout childhood, new data reveal

@Infoseepage
Ohhh good point!

That's the problem, isn't it? Once there is one "obvious" possibility, they don't look for other possibilities.

"CDC has sequenced the influenza viruses in specimens collected from the patient in Louisiana who was infected with, and became severely ill from #H5N1 virus.

The analysis identified low frequency mutations in the hemagglutinin gene of a sample sequenced from the patient, which were not found in virus sequences from poultry samples collected on the patient’s property...

...suggesting the changes emerged in the patient after infection."

1) No surprise really
2) I wonder why in the past 2 months
3) Thank you thank you thank you to The Wayback Machine on The Internet Archive (https:archive.org) for saving webpages that "mysteriously" disappear.

The letter from Delta to the CDC instructing the CDC to let people go back to work while sick, *USED* to be available (on Delta's site) but it has been taken down.

#BirdFlu confirmed in waterfowl in Woodstock, ‘numerous locations’ in #Illinois

“I don’t know if the #BirdFlu will become a pandemic, but if it does, we are screwed.”

"The conjunctivitis that this is causing is not a mild one, but rather ruptured blood vessels & bleeding conjunctiva.”

“Producer refuses to send workers to a clinic to get tested... they're too busy. He has pinkeye, too."

The agriculture community has dictated the rules of engagement from the start. That was a big mistake.”

Workers: “The cows are more valuable than us.”
