The same COVID denial playbook will be trotted out for this next pandemic and you’ll just nod along. There will be no mask mandates, nothing will be shut down, we will not go back to any of the lockdown policies, we’ll get nothing and you’ll be just fine with that because it’s just the flu.
I’ll be watching what China does. They seem to take this shit seriously, unlike our clown county.
I didn’t deny COVID at all, instead I worked in a hospital the entire pandemic, asshole. You’re so bent out of shape by someone who has a slightly different idea of reality than you that you just make shit up about them in your head to justify your negative thoughts. Go to therapy.
The pandemic didn’t end, people are still dying from COVID; we just stopped caring because it’s too hard to deal with sustainably. I’d say you’re pretty normal, but that’s still denial.
COVID is just the flu and bird flu is just COVID, nothing matters, let the bodies pile up.
Seems like from all the cows that have been infected, none have fallen seriously ill and all have fully recovered. Among the hundreds (thousands?) of cows that have been infected, are we at 3 total people who have caught it from them? And all had a minor illness and made a full recovery.
Over 700,000 people die every year from common variants of the flu, where 463 people total have died over the past 20 years from H5N1. We should always be working to reduce flu mortality, and this H5N1 outbreak is certainly something to watch closely and be prepared for potentialities, but also the sky is not falling.
No, I’m treating this like it will inevitably become another pandemic. Viruses mutate, and this one has already jumped from birds to cows. It’s only a matter of time.
Well I don’t eat eggs or drink milk, so I’m not contributing to the petri dishes of laying ops and dairy farms. Maybe if we didn’t pack animals together and torture them for money we could slow down the emergence of new diseases. It always comes back to animal exploitation.
But I think you misunderstood me. I was only saying that when this inevitably becomes a pandemic there will be zero government response. I wasn’t saying that we should be shutting down society this instant, but rather, that when this jumps human-to-human we’ll just ignore it.

I didn’t say this. No one here said this. This is called a straw man.
You’re clearly saying it’s no big deal. 🙄

That sounds exhausting. How have you changed your behavior to affect something that doesn’t yet exist and that you have zero control over?
