I dread the day human to human infection is attained by it. Especially looking at it’s mortality rate. Scary.

Those fuckers talking about how “traumatic” covid lockdowns were seem to be in for a real nasty surprise.
Trump has Nurgle’s favor i think.
also i think Kennedy is some kind of Plaguebearer
I can’t wait for the SECOND Trump pandemic.
Mandate of Heaven? Lost.
Scary? There’s a cheeto in the white house again, now that’s scary

Don’t worry, when RFK Jr takes over as head of the FDA he’s gonna fix everything!
I’m sure H5N1 has had a couple of instances of human to human transmission before (that didn’t go anywhere)
So like… Why can’t we just start vaccinating now?
Does flu vaccine do anything against this?
there are different vaccines for H5N1 that already exist, they just have to ramp up production if it starts spreading. too bad like 20-30% of the US will refuse it lol
thats if the FDA will still allow vaccinations
Unvaxxed loads will be only thing covered by insurance.
Probably some minor cross protection but you wouldn’t expect much or want to rely on it, and you can’t predict how fast the virus will mutate and adapt either
You can always buy some tamiflu from India for $50-100 for peace of mind, at least before antiviral drug resistance develops
how long can it be stored?
I’ve seen testing up to 10 years after expiry with similar efficacy and a quick google suggests the FDA extended that to 20 years recently
Often causes pretty dreadful vomiting, and it’s not clear whether it would be of great benefit in the event of a highly pathogenic flu, but it’s the standard treatment for the avian flus
(A meta-analysis did find that it didn’t reduce hospitalisation, but it’s hard to translate to findings given most people taking Tamiflu are going to be at a high risk)
It’s happening
Is there any record of human to human Transmission? I’ll start worrying if that happens tbh
Only a couple of possible cases years ago, seemingly not easily spread
If it’s like COVID and only kills 10-20 percent of older people and a couple percent of adults it could be circulating for a while before detection
I guess I gotta stock up on non perishable groceries, just in case.
