cows catching bird flu? does it become cow flu?
I saw this article somewhere else and someone there called it “cowvid”:-)
It makes me wonder if this may be what is hitting dogs in shelters from Delaware. This summer they had to shut down dog adoptions in the state as a mystery respiratory illness took down a bunch of dogs. We actually had lost a puppy who came from that region. The way she got sick reminded me of COVID. We had her two days, and she went from super healthy (on antibiotics from recovering “kennel cough”) to coughing in on the second day. On the third day we had to take her in. The animal ER could not see her heart through the X-rays in her lungs, and she had sepsis. I grew up with dogs, and she was our family’s sixth dog. I’d never seen anything like it.
The shelter was having the ER do a lung swab, but it was apparently “lost.” This was very concerning to me.
Don’t worry, The Musk and RFK Jr. will “fix” “everything” soon! 😔
I guess that means that we’ll become more “natural”? Unfortunately I suspect that means not having access to things like antibiotics or vaccines or other medical care. In the thousands of years past, dying of diseases was unfortunately more “normal” than living to 80+, and for whatever reason we’ve decided that it’s “good” to return to that state.
What’s highly odd about that is that we literally pay The Musk to help get people up to literal space, yet here on the ground we are told that we need to be more “natural”? How those two are supposed to go together… I must be too dumb to understand.
This flu variant started with birds, or has long been associated with them. In the past few years it has begun to hop species and decimate wildlife.
Did cowpox and chickpox did not turn into humanpox when humans caught them?
