Crazy how if it was any democrat saying drink raw milk s/he would likely be accused of a conspiracy in which he is trying to spread bird flu so they can have another pandemic and vaccine manufacturers make money out of it. But when a republican says it, s/he is probably celebrated for using the wisdom of our grand grand parents.

I mean, viruses are kind of Trumps thing. Maybe H5N1 kills another million or so to mark his second term.

H5N1 is way, way more lethal than Covid19.

If it were to mutate to spread between humans without decreasing in lethality it would probably be the deadliest event in human history by a significant margin.

On the bright side, if H5N1 kills off all its hosts, it'll effectively eradicate itself

H5N1 would kill a lot more than a million if it goes H2H.
