Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Low, huh. Is that shorthand for "We have no fucking clue?"
"We don't want people to panic" sounds super familiar lol
"we don't want the economy to panic"
This bloated ass bubble is going to pop catastrophically
I really feel for my American comrades but god damn I wish it would pop already. Every month it don't pop is another month of America shipping dollars and weapons to Israel and a bunch of Al-Qaeda spinoffs
American politicians like
"What do you mean it can't expand forever without bursting?"
Good old reliable CDC. Love this public trust.
(emphasis mine) From the introduction of the Acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome in the San Francisco Cohort Study, 1978 -1985. The absence of data, to be clear, is not "an encouraging indication" of anything. By the 90s it was established that virtually everyone with untreated HIV develops AIDS after a latency period of 8-15 years. But there basically weren't any treatments yet. No heads rolled for publishing this claim and there is no reason to believe the culture of the CDC has improved since.
Also how do they define “immediate risk” like in the next few weeks? Next few months?
"Until human-human spread happens which could be any day". Given how many times we roll the dice and the fact that no precautions are being taken, it seems likely it'll happen eventually.
Low as in we can't say it's bad until it's out of fuckin control
You gave me a posting idea. I'm busy right now so maybe I'll get back to you tomorrow. Or maybe sooner like in the next hour work be damned.
Humans have been getting infected with HPAI H5N1 for a couple decades, surprised it took so long for the US
It would be concerning if it was the same variant in US cows
