Dairy cattle in Nevada have been infected with a new type of bird flu that’s different from the version that has spread in U.S. herds since last year, Agriculture Department officials said Wednesday.
The detection indicates that distinct forms of the virus known as Type A H5N1 have spilled over from wild birds into cattle at least twice. Experts said it raises new questions about wider spread and the difficulty of controlling infections in animals and the people who work closely with them.
“I always thought one bird-to-cow transmission was a very rare event. Seems that may not be the case,” said Richard Webby, an influenza expert at St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital.
Being able to eat meat doesn’t mean you have to. Something that (perhaps slightly irrationally) annoys me about some people. They act as if a meal requires meat and then complain at how expensive food is to buy. Laughs in omnivore £15/week each diet. But by not being actually vegetarian I can still have things like Worcestershire sauce too.
Yeah and its annoying the vegans that are so militant they discourage meat reduction in diets. Beef is so much worse (both health and environment) than most other meats that getting a large amount of folks to give up or massively reduce beef consumption is way better than a much smaller number becoming vegan.
why do you think that?
because of data. water usage and calorie conversion ratio on environment and fatty foods for diet. Im not going to do a web search for you as these things are well known and don’t go into places are only good for grazing or such as im talking reduction and not elimination. Just note Im only going to give so much effort toward any questions you want to pose as again this is not super controversial or hard to find information.
Just look at /r/vegan, even if you don’t eat/use animal products you are still not a vegan unless its for their specific reasons. If you do it for environmental reasons they decide you don’t count as a vegan.
