Haha they are trying this again? Almost election time gotta start something I guess

[bdawg]

I thought something was up when I saw roosters buying up toilet paper 🤔

[LpCh]

Your attempt at fearmongering has failed.

[sinead]

Always remember nobody in government will ever die from these pandemics makes you wonder

[MrPlymouthsundance]

no more eggs chicken milk or beef only bugs

[JesusIsGoodTruth]

Sadly most people will buy into this again. And this time it will be much bigger punishment.

[scottgeene]

Looks like Democrats are going to try this again for this election huh😅😮

[HagiaFantasia]

I think I speak for a lot of people when I say our nerves could really use another lockdown and stimulus checks

[Debra]

Did anyone ever consider WILD BIRDS or is it just our food supply that needs to be taken out?

[ZkHero-irkq]

Protect the food ! Protect your farmers. They are destroying our food

[elyselusk]

So if everybody's symptoms are mild, then how is the virus a 50%mortality rate?

[valley]

This time it's not a concern but the closer we get to November the more serious it'll become 😅

[Timorias]

The main concern is that infected milk has been circulating. The concern is low because bird flu historically and currently doesn’t spread between humans. However if enough people get infected by bad milk there’s a chance the virus figures out how to spread between people. The odds are still relatively low though.

Just in time for elections. Count Fauci’s last gift to the word.

[HeavenWatch]

The real pandemic involves toilet paper...

[JosephSciegns]

You mean Flew??
Bird Soar…. High in the sky!
Please don’t be sore about my postings…🙄

[Theluckypessimist]

Oh cause the election? We know the game.

[xijinbling]

More concerned about a corrupt government.

[ziggyxero]

This is the modern USA. Our government, and now its people are fed to believe it’s not gonna get bad. Let’s just be more cleanly and conscious within our daily lives. You heard the man say “0 farms have enrolled in voluntary farm testing”. That’s all you need to know about what’s to come.

Jared Diamond pointed out that smallpox was one of the adaptations that made Spanish colonisation of the Americas successful. Can’t help thinking that these flu’s and covid offer the same advantages.
