Summary
New York has ordered a temporary closure of live-poultry markets from Feb. 7 to Feb. 14 after bird flu was detected in Queens, the Bronx, and Brooklyn.
The order mandates disinfection and inventory sell-down, with infected markets reporting to state officials. The Wildlife Conservation Society confirmed bird flu-related deaths at the Queens and Bronx zoos.
Rising bird flu cases nationwide have contributed to egg shortages and price spikes.
Meanwhile, a new strain was detected in Nevada dairy cows, though pasteurization ensures milk safety.
Here we go again. Get your N95 masks and bidet now while there’s no surge pricing and limited supplies.
Best i can do is a hissy fit and a freedom convoy
I’ve got plenty of masks. No bidet but I can reach the handheld shower head tubing from the toilet and get it over to toilet. (No TP at 3am and already having done some nasty #2 helped me think creatively and very desperately.)
I’m buying a bidet this month. Going to civilized countries that use them made me too jealous. Unfortunately they’re not cheap for the fancy ones I want 😭
A lot of places will probably try to make wearing them illegal.
Also - vegetarians are fun people, come join us! We have . . y’know . . chips and beer.
Great time to go vegan! Cow dairy farms, in addition to being rife with abuse, have been a big contribution to the spread of H5N1 as well.
Nay. Honey is great.
Ovo-lacto vegetarian, maybe?
Most people want to eat eggs and chicken.
Most people deserve bird flu
Most people didn’t see a global pandemic coming
Yeast is a living creature in making beer.
Yeast has nothing to do with being veg
Never said it did. Said it is a living creature used to make beer.
