| In general, cattle have been better able to recover from H5N1 Bird Flu. But new data brings that into question. The mortality rate is far higher then expected. ‘More serious than we had hoped’: Bird flu deaths mount among California dairy cows As California struggles to contain an increasing number ... |

| That is a very important point. Without testing you do not really know the extent of the pandemic. At the present time only a very small, very limited number of people are being tested. So we are operating in the dark. |

| The National Guards are coming to provide help. Many years ago (around 55 years ago) during the Vietnam War, I was a member of the Air National Guard. Here is one of my fellow Guardsmen from the Tennessee Army National Guard stepping in to provide assistance in a time of need. 913th Engineer Company... |

| I find this incredibly ludicrous: Marjorie Taylor Greene stated today that Democrats created Hurricane Helene to intentionally affect Republican areas. This is right up there with her Jewish space lasers causing the California wild fires I do not think Democrats created this hurricane. But I do sus... |

| One thing we have learned in recent years is that it is not only the storm surge and wind with tropical systems but the amount of rain that falls could be the worst aspect with the tropical systems.

But they too are dealing with an outbreak, a similar outbreak and this is affecting their country. Australia's bird flu outbreak has claimed the lives of 2 million... |
