Cows at three dairy farms in California, the top U.S. milk-producing state, tested positive for bird flu, the state’s agriculture department said on Friday.

And here we go again with another pandemic…
I’m positive that warmer temperatures increase disease transmission and outbreak intensity in a host-pathogen system. It’s not really proven, but I fear is only going to amplify and this is just the start.
Not only that, but also people are stupid.
Bird flu is contaminating mammals like cows and pigs, it’s a small jump to infect humans (btw, it already contaminated rural employees). A simple pasteurization procedure (heat up to 70°C and then cool down faster) is enough to kill the virus, but there is a trend in US to drink raw milk just because they’re saying that pasteurization is a form of government control and brain washing.
The only issue is that these arrombados (I’ll keep this word in my language) that are doing this shit will probably get infected, spread a totally avoidable disease and probably infect someone who’s trying to take all the precautions needed.
I guess everything really does cause cancer in California…
