Well, certainly not if it’s happening in California. Like it’s not going to spread to Red states.

mercmwr.bsky.social•115 days ago

Haha.

nursedeb007.bsky.social•115 days ago

Sorry to be so obtuse… but I am a hospital nurse for 34 years and don’t know what a n99 mask is. Can you please explain?

wobedraggled.bsky.social•115 days ago

Much like an N95 mask they are rated for particular % capture.

I assume they are upping from the 95's to capture more particulates.

Darn it..

Trump does seem to summon pandemics on the American people...

shadow6743.bsky.social•115 days ago

Well damn here we go again. 🙄

theatomicgirl.bsky.social•114 days ago

My kid with a chronic condition never stopped using masks so I have a bunch of kn95s and hand sanitizer tucked away this time.

sunshinesoul.bsky.social•115 days ago

When “we” don’t learn from ( recent) history…😔

wobedraggled.bsky.social•115 days ago

All set here, not mucking round with this nonsense.

lavendesic.bsky.social•114 days ago

We have stockpiles of H1N1 vaccines.

Trump will probably set the stockpiles on fire

erikastarrs.bsky.social•115 days ago

Yikes

chicsheri.bsky.social•115 days ago

This is stressful.

And before he steals them and sells them to the highest bidder (Russia)…

avian flu is jumping to humans, still waiting to see if human to human transmission happens. Having masks around might be a good thing. Don't count on tRump to save us.

houfek.bsky.social•114 days ago

Um, what is the CURRENT administration doing?

homerharlequin.bsky.social•114 days ago

But will the workers use them (and use them correctly)?
My experience in industrial settings getting workers to wear eye protection suggests voluntary compliance will be difficult to achieve.

paintedlranch.bsky.social•114 days ago

That's what happens when you have a governor who understands the assignment.💙🇺🇲

This is an H5N1 remediation measure?

jacqueblue.bsky.social•113 days ago

I cannot confirm or deny this question but I do know there was a confirmed case in US a couple weeks ago. I do not remember any of the details at the moment because a couple of things have happened since then.

purelyrick.bsky.social•113 days ago

An emerging pandemic is definitely what we need right now.

gradskooler.bsky.social•113 days ago

There have been at least 53.

purelyrick.bsky.social•113 days ago

Ugh.

jacqueblue.bsky.social•113 days ago

right?

jacqueblue.bsky.social•113 days ago

TY. Definitely gone up since last time I saw anything. I've been avoiding media as much as possible.

gradskooler.bsky.social•113 days ago

You're welcome. I suspect those numbers are quite low and not really representative.

jacqueblue.bsky.social•113 days ago

Definitely! Covid was here long before the first confirmed case.

manillafolder.bsky.social•114 days ago

You people are idiots

tyler867.bsky.social•114 days ago

Thankfully we now have Trump appointed RFK jr to protect us

laseletzky.bsky.social•115 days ago

THIS

jpottmann.bsky.social•115 days ago

Oof. Great time to have a man who's had a brain worm & who is also a vaccine skeptic. #WereDoomed

pgpg123.bsky.social•115 days ago

We are about to have a Dodo bird running the show!! Stock up on PPE now!

democracydonna.bsky.social•113 days ago

Smart move.

akamai2.bsky.social•115 days ago

I just put in an order. Don’t want to wait until the rush.

kerri-rice.bsky.social•114 days ago

Where did you order from? Address? URL?

akamai2.bsky.social•114 days ago

Sorry is this about masks? I can’t see my original post. Is so I buy the KN Flax KF94 from Amazon. I get the 40 pack. They are the easiest to breathe with and wear for long periods.

Bird flu doesn't transmit well between humans

evilwhippet.bsky.social•114 days ago

Yet.

marmel.bsky.social•114 days ago

postalsteve.bsky.social•114 days ago

According to the CDC there's been 50+ cases of avian flu to transferring to humans. That means there's some mutation. I like that they're being proactive.

dansjuan.bsky.social•114 days ago

...yet. I saw pigs have gotten infected, which could provide opportunities for H5N1 to recombine with other flu strains.

drevilsmom.bsky.social•113 days ago

Not yet, however there is a case in BC with a critically ill teenager. It’s picked up some genes that allow for easier transmission. Luckily, they haven’t detected any positives in contacts, but really it’s only a matter of time.

tleighb.bsky.social•113 days ago

especially now with RFK Jr over science..who knows what we're going to have 🙄

drevilsmom.bsky.social•113 days ago

I agree. Ugh… 😭😭😭

tleighb.bsky.social•113 days ago

I'm not losing faith that there's not something that can be done. I'll deal with a Trump presidency on Jan 21 if I have to..until then I have the utmost faith in Harris & Jack Smith. They are career prosecutors, he's a career criminal..if anyone can find something it's them. 🤞✨

fascismsuckz.bsky.social•113 days ago

They’ve had 4 quarters to turn this around and you think they’ll get a hail mary across the line in the last seconds?

I’m not that hopeful 😬
