Absolutely. When I used to travel to a number of food unregulated places the rules were- don’t eat raw salad or raw fruits/veggies without hardy peels you cannot peel or wash well- cook veggies & spinach- eat bananas- wash all fruit/veggies before cooking or eating, don’t eat raw at restaurants/1

This is what I’m holding to here now. From restaurants/take outs No Lettuce, Tomato, onion on sandwiches etc. No pickles, no sprouts. No salads. No beef, all other protein cooked well. At home I also am careful, I wash fresh fruits & veg and/or peel. also limit raw to things easy to wash/1

Like carrots, apples, mango, nectarines, mandarins, tomatoes, sometimes zucchini or green beans. I don’t trust raw celery. I wash dark leafy veg well. These & Other veg I cook. /3

It's truly the pandemic all over again. If your aware of what's happening, most aren't, but yea if i can't verify the food source now, i don't eat it. American beef is off the table, Chicken was already hit or miss, slowly it's back to plant protein.

Food you can cook which kills the virus. If and when the pandemic strikes that will be the least of your worries. The virus is airborne and thus far has a 50% mortality rate (vs 1-5% for COVID). So far not easily transmissible to humans but that can change any day.

My comment wasnt about bird flu it was more of a pandemic of fog, a fog of war if you will, unchecked food, things like mad cow slipping through cracks and yes even the potential for bird flu. the statement was just a catch all.

Currently, cooking food is helpful for H5N1. There are also other viruses that is helpful gor, like Norovirus which has been bad this year, and bacterial issues as regulations disappear in US.

If H5N1 starts transmitting person to person, yes very transmissible & not good outcomes, so PPE /1
