And the gutting of federal agencies using schedule F is going to make what might have been just a big problem into a massive one. Bye bye FDA and Dept. of Agriculture. You'll be missed (by whoever lives).
The great agains are going to find out their incompetent clown cabinet managed to get next year's turkey wiped out & they ruined the Thanksgiving tradition.
Just in case you forgot, all the other non-capitalist societies also suffered horribly from pandemics! often to a far worse degree!
if anything, the Covid vaccine coming out as quickly as it did is a capitalist miracle of business-fueled global collaboration and scientific progress 🙃
not to defend capitalism but when plagues happened in feudalist countries the answer was pretty much always “just die, I guess. you didn’t pray hard enough”
for all its flaws, at least capitalist countries invented stuff like vaccines tbh
Yet millions got sick and millions died because the machine of capitalism had stopped for a week or two and the .1% desperately wanted office workers back in their massive high rises that were shown to be legitimately worthless because of the pandemic.
so, this might actually be a good thing. Since the majority of those who actually get the vaccinations to stay healthy are dems and indies, that leaves those who refuse to vaccinate. Ummm let me think.They will get sick and die? Oh well. I'm more sad that animals will be killed off by the millions.
I tried to send a gif, but do not know if it came through correctly. Half the country did not vote for trump. And interestingly, Harris lost only by just over 160K votes, so no, it was NOT a big margin-actually third closest race in our history. Worse yet, a full third of us did not vote at all!
True. I should have been more specific, that’s my fault. Regardless, it’s is deeply disturbing who many of our fellow countrymen have trusted with the reigns.
If not by the politicians, then effort on finding them is needed. They cannot withhold life-saving vacs for the entire state. Or, am I misunderstanding you? The CDC, provided it is still a thing, will distribute to the states. If it is gone, anybodys guess as to what to do. Half did not vote 4 T.
I don’t think there will be an eradication of the CDC, however I do think that the gremlins (Trump and Kennedy) put in power will be given the power to weaken many systems put in place. Many of the conservative voters see vaccines as the enemy, when it’s more complex.
It may not be eliminated, but they may not get the funding to do the research to MAKE the vaccines. Bobbie will only have ample drugs to feed his addiction issues. The same Dr that was there in trumps first term, has again been 'hired' for the WH. He was a generous drug distributer! BK is cooked!
Vaccines will be privatized, surprise surprise. Moderna and Pfizer will be able to use this to their advantage. Just like all healthcare in the US, it will be readily available if you have the money ready. United States politicians do not care for the common good, only for their fat wallets.
Bird flu is not transmissible to humans...that is one. Two is that if you happened to contract Avian Flu, it is a simple cold that can be shortened by taking.........IVERMECTIN!!!
Don’t worry, we’ll have Trump and maybe Kennedy to save us. I’m sure they have some creative, untested cures for us. Like bleach for Covid, maybe it’ll be antifreeze for bird flu. MAGA can start hoarding it now.
You think it's bad now, wait until Mr. "I never met a vaccine I didn't reflexively hate, or a dead animal carcass I didn't poke, cut up, or move someplace else with my bare hands" takes charge of health care services.
This is a good clip. RFK talks facts and numbers. Maher gets cheers for just drowning him out with bluster. Its funny that the ppl who scream "trust the science" don't talk in facts and numbers but just keep repeating empty claims like "anti-vaxxer". At least they clapped when RFK nixxed mandates.
RFK couldn't talk facts if he had an encyclopaedia in front of him. The guy is terribly dishonest. Case in point: He told his followers not to get vaccinated for Covid, while telling his house guests to get vaccinated for Covid before visiting him.
The federal government is owned by big agriculture, which is NOT actual farmers but chemical, pharmaceutical, machinery, petrochemical, etc. industries.
Allowing politicians to get unlimited donations has ensured every grifter without a life plan can now aspire to politics. All you need to do is loudly shout about how much you hate brown ppl, cry about where trans ppl pee, and you’re certain to be elected. 😡

Groundhog Day indeed. Biden could have acted swiftly when the first dairy herd was identified. Now 915 herds across 16 states are infected, and the first US death form H5N1 - and still silence from POTUS.
I am pretty sure the numbers will rise and by 1/20 we may see more warning signs and perhaps human to human transmission. Once the virus has achieved that - we are doomed for a repeat of 2020, but with higher mortality. And with RFK at HHS we will be completely F***********D
And the orange terror is back to blow it again. How much will Tyson, Perdue, et al pay to DJT to keep it quiet until it’s too late. We are in transactional hell.
the massive dairy, beef and poultry farms are incubators for pathogens and zoonotic disease
USDA & CDC are corporate-captured and pressured by industry to cut regulations ...now they have ignored first, then dragged feet on this emerging disease
National Milk Producers Federation & US Poultry and Egg Association have been lobbying for less regulations and less inspections for decades .. USDA didnt say jack and allowed ever increasing size herds, interstate fransfer, abysmal conditions...
And now they have been dragging feet for over a year
while thats true, not all industries have the potential to unleash global health emergencies like food systems & livestock so this is especially important
american (or any) national public health organization bowing to corporate profits risking every human life is a global concern ..
True. I just don’t want us to forget health-related industries, or anything with chemicals/high-environmental impact, really. The potential death toll that is, risk-management-wise, “acceptable” for those corporations usually only stops at “hundreds of deaths”, too, not dozens.
they are trying to kill us all off for some strange reason. We are the ones putting the money in their pockets, but it seems they just want us all dead.
yeah Reagan did his job fucking the people with that garbage and the idiots ate it up. Seems they love screwing themselves over hard to spite someone else. bunch a god damned red hat morons.
Is there no corner of society left unscathed by the greed of unchecked capitalism? If this takes off, we are well and truly f@€^cked. I’d suggest investing in some good N95 s with face shields now. If this makes the jump to human transmission,masking with eye protection will be crucial
So...the price of eggs won't be going down afterall. Let's see how the new administration tries to sidestep that blatant lie that they could drive down the egg price.
I'm very fearful for the future when some flu strain gets out and the cats have it and Orange Furioso in the White House will order through his emergency powers to gather up all the puddy cats (160 million) and ban them to Mexico or even worse. I put nothing past his rotten brain/leaking bladder!
One bright-ish spot is that H5 vaccines exist. Even though the strains are outdated, they wouldn't need to start from scratch like they did with covid.
Epidemiologist here. Spillover events happen all the time and they are increasing with enviornmental changes (habitat distruction, climate change, etc.). In high school people generally learn the basics about evoluation and adaptation and it applies to viruses as well.
Bbbbut it’ll just disappear- 🫥 like covid-well maybe not like covid, but like something else maybe.
I mean- what is the chance that another killer virus erupts while incompetent Trump is president…pffft No way
They culled the birds but not the cattle, because they 'got better' and pet cats have died from eating raw meat It wouldn't be cheap but perhaps safer if they'd culled the cattle too
I’m not up on the current status of this virus (not my area of research), but I just read an article on the first human death from avian influenza. There were no details with the report, so 🤷♀️
US constitutional rules and provisions that promoted individual liberty and economic prosperity also influenced, for good and for bad, have throttled the country’s ability to eradicate infectious disease. https://press.uchicago.edu/ucp/books/book/chicago/P/bo14007600.html
When it got to the point of freezer trucks this statement should have stood witness to the mindset that led to disaster. You know The Orange One is gonna fuck it up even worse this time...
Trump said he would disband the Office of Pandemic Preparedness and Response Policy. The office most recently responded to an outbreak of bird flu in dairy farms, coordinating with the Food and Drug Administration to ensure milk remains safe to drink, and working with farmers to contain the virus.
Sounds like an issue, but don't know enough to comment from this post... By the way, talking about birds... Sure there is some way that birds flying into planes can be prevented???
For years, I’ve kept my family healthy by transforming our lawn into a chemical-free garden and ensuring we only consume milk after boiling it to eliminate potential risks.

ie free commons information, not proprietary
Millions of dead people would like to offer their gratitude to capitalism!
Lather.
Rinse.
Repeat.
RFK Jr is an insane anti-vaxxer
The guy is fully vaccinated except for Covid and so his family.
Stop believing the lies the people who want us divided vomit all over the internet.
mRNA treatments have their uses, but they won't eradicate Covid like small pox was eradicated. Vaccine? Not really.

Its like, FK, do you folks believe everything you are told so long as a supposed authority says it? The MSM is the divider, NOT RFK.
And FFS, are you talking about ALL vaccines or one? Geezus.
Its hard to keep facts straight when people want "anti-vax" conspiracies so bad they say anything to double down on their claims.

Biden has been asleep at the wheel for any public health issues, government burying its head in the sand. Trump will be much worse.
If H5N1 becomes well adapted (2-3 remaining mutations needed), we’re screwed.
NO WAY WHO COULD HAVE SEEN THIS COMING
“I cOulD nEveR gIvE uP StEAKs, eGgS or chEesE teehee!” 🤭

The biggest trick the US pulled in the past half a century is to relabel corruption to “lobbying” to make it socially acceptable.
That’s fucking genius marketing right there. 👍
american (or any) national public health organization bowing to corporate profits risking every human life is a global concern ..
They now exert substantial control over almost all aspects of government.
there is a lot of BlueSky which is appropriate to your warning, but leave the scientific disease management stuff alone okey ✌️🤓🍉
I'm not a doctor. And that's a very good thing.
There are very good doctors out there. But half of them are idiots. The education system is designed to create them.
A good, careful diet goes a long way. +Vitamins.
..at the same time, great advances in science which teach us exactly what that 'good, careful diet' is
unsurprisingly, the ideal diet is not the same for you & me .. plus it changes over our lives .. same with vitamins
Once enough safeguards are removed, the problem will solve itself... (depressingly so, but cest le vie)
They seem so intent on rustling feathers every which way.
They really gotta have another pandemic!
They want to screw with everyone.
The fools that suggest they are the only solution aren't doctors, their either thieves, enemies or idiots.
People who eat well and take their vitamins seldom get sick.
The human body is way smarter than vaccine scientists.
Ignore science at your own peril because you've been red pilled to think doctors are killing you with medicine.
Pharma makes it up as they go along.
You look at existing data and either improve upon it or come up with new theories.
Pharma lies constantly.
Corporations shouldn't be in charge of our healthcare as they will always put profits over people.
We need better oversight and more involvement from non profits and governments.
Vaccines though are a necessary tool in fighting global disease.
To eradicate polio, more than 95 per cent of a population needs to be immunized, according to the Associated Press.
Also the issue is with the type of vaccine administered not vaccines as a whole
