Official H5N1 (Bird Flu) Thread

[Gloxina]

My girls a nurse and been letting me know people been sick but testing negative for COVId, FLU, etc. This is already here and all I hear is people coughing and sneezing outside. Protect yourselves accordingly.

Maaaaaan yes! Mad ppl coughing talking about they don’t have covid. I’m like “yea but you have something ”

this might hit harder if democrats hadn't forced paper masking into 2022, which we now know was asinine and laughably stupid. kept schools closed even AFTER all teachers were vaccinated, in fall of 2021, because their teachers union donors didn't want to do their jobs. so yes, it is a matter of "participating" in the pandemic, and a whole lot less people are gonna go along with it

sad that the left and the "experts" blew so much political and credibility capitol last time; sounds like they should have kept some in the tank for the future. oh well

they were right to keep schools closed.

Hes a fukkin idiot but he illustrates what CACs think and believe in.

in fall of 2021, when everyone who wanted the shot had been vaccinated what the fukk are you talking about? nobody wanted their kids still home at that point

you aren't speaking for actual parents on that, you goofy b*stard

2k people die a week in the US from COVID


Business as usual though

actual parents were knowingly sending their covid positive kids into schools only for the schools to shutdown and switch into remote learning or force other kids who got covid to not be allowed on school grounds.

at least try to pretend you're not a chatbot for the DNC

you're talking about fall of 2020. not fall of 2021. stop lying

 

[Serious]

I am a chatbot for the RNC

I’m just here to use bad faith arguments and deflect from discussions

so you disagree that most americans (of all kinds) aren't gonna jump back into pandemic mode next year, because dr fauci says so?

you're in for a rude awakening sorry, breh. i didn't know i was bursting anyone's bubble

and i mean that

by the way, when you post stats, you should post ages to go with it.

Can cats catch and pass this? I been sick since Thursday, knees burnin and full body aches, fatigue.

Cats keep catching and spreading a puzzling and deadly disease: Is your cat safe?

Cats may help the bird flu virus become a greater public health threat. Here's why.

yes

Very much so, one of the main domesticated spreaders right now.

CDC released a report of sequencing the virus from the severe case in Louisiana

Genetic Sequences of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza A(H5N1) Viruses Identified in a Person in Louisiana

CDC has sequenced the influenza viruses in specimens collected from the patient in Louisiana who was

www.cdc.gov

Most of the nucleotide sequences exactly matched those in circulation in birds but a minority of the viruses sequenced had mutations that gave amino acid changes and new proteins that have been typically associated with severe flu infections in other global locations. It is inferred these mutations likely were initiated in the human host and not the animal population. As stated below this isn't as bad as if the virulent strains were found in animals or early human infection but is still a warning.

These data indicate the viruses detected in respiratory specimens from this patient are closely related to existing HPAI A(H5N1) CVVs that are already available to manufacturers, and which could be used to make vaccines if needed.


There were some differences detected between the NP/OP and the NP specimens. Despite the very close similarity of the D1.1 sequences from the Louisiana human case to bird viruses, deep sequence analysis of the HA gene segment from the combined NP/OP sample detected low frequency mixed nucleotides corresponding to notable amino acid residues (using mature HA sequence numbering):

• A134A/V [Alanine 88%, Valine 12%];
• N182N/K [Asparagine 65%, Lysine 35%]; and
• E186E/D [Glutamic acid 92%, Aspartic Acid 8%].

The NP specimen, notably, did not have these low frequency changes indicating they may have been detected from swabbing the oropharyngeal cavity of the patient. While these low frequency changes are rare in humans, they have been reported in previous cases of A(H5N1) in other countries and most often during severe disease2345. The E186E/D mixture, for example, was also identified in a specimen collected from the severe human case detected in British Columbia, Canada.

Comparison of influenza A(H5) sequence data from viruses identified in wild birds and poultry in Louisiana, including poultry identified on the property of the patient, and other regions of the United States did not identify these changes. Of note, virus sequences from poultry sampled on the patient's property were nearly identical to the virus sequences from the patient but did not have the mixed nucleotides identified in the patient's clinical sample, strongly suggesting that the changes emerged during infection as virus replicated in the patient. Although concerning, and a reminder that A(H5N1) viruses can develop changes during the clinical course of a human infection, these changes would be more concerning if found in animal hosts or in early stages of infection (e.g., within a few days of symptom onset) when these changes might be more likely to facilitate spread to close contacts.
